Do you need dental care but have a fear of the dentist? We understand that your anxiety is real, and we want to take steps to ensure you can obtain the treatment you need without discomfort and anxiety. To help, your team at Riverside Dental Group can provide oral conscious sedation!
When Our Patients Require Sedation
When do we recommend a calming option for our patients? Well, this can help keep them comfortable if they are undergoing a more extensive treatment, such as wisdom tooth extraction, dental implant placement, or restoration placement. In addition, this can help keep patients with dental anxiety comfortable, and also aid those with special needs that makes undergoing dental care a difficult process.
Choosing the Best Option for You
We’re talking about oral conscious sedation in today’s blog, but we also offer calming with nitrous oxide and even IV options. But how do we choose the best one for you? We will look at a number of different factors, such as your age, weight, and your medical history. We also consider any medications you take, and assess your overall anxiety levels too. With this information, we can choose the best option for you!
Oral Conscious Sedation
With all of our options, a trained member of our team will administer the calming mediation and then monitor you throughout the procedure to ensure your safety and comfort. With oral conscious, we will schedule treatment in the morning and then have you fast beforehand, avoiding food and drink for about six to eight hours before the procedure begins. We then offer calming medication in the form of a pill or liquid. You enter a deep state of calm, staying conscious and able to respond to the team without having any memory of the process.
The effects will take time to wear off completely, so you will need to have someone on hand to take you home. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions and any necessary prescriptions for sedation too. If you have any questions about how we help smiles and patients with sedation, or if you want to schedule a visit now and start summer with a brighter smile, then reach out to our team today.
