SEDATION Options

What are the benefits of Sedation Dentistry? Sedation alleviates fear and anxiety, helps eliminate pain and discomfort, and reduces gag reflex.

It also allows tense muscles to relax making the procedure comfortable for you.

TYPES OF SEDATION

Ofrecemos tres tipos de sedación. Se pueden utilizar por separado o en combinación. Se discutirán sus necesidades individuales. Si la sedación es acordado, serán monitoreados sus signos vitales para garantizar su seguridad durante el tratamiento.

Óxido nitroso: This option is considered as one of the safest methods of dental sedation. Commonly known as “laughing gas,” this technique uses a blend of nitrous and oxygen, which is administered through a mask that’s worn over the mouth. Nitrous oxide is designed to enhance relaxation during treatment while you remain conscious and in control throughout the procedure.

La sedación oral: Oral sedation is another excellent option for patients who wish to remain conscious but relaxed during the procedure. Oral conscious sedation often involves taking a sedative-hypnotic drug the night before an appointment as well as at the start of the appointment the following morning. You will need a companion to drive you home after the appointment. Oral sedation may be discussed according to your specific needs.

Sedación intravenosa: This option is a form of moderate sedation. With IV sedation, you’ll receive the sedative drug through a vein, so it goes to work very quickly. Nuestra oficina trabaja con un anestesiólogo dental para proporcionar servicios de sedación IV. Que estará inconsciente para el tratamiento. Usted necesitará un compañero lo lleve a casa después de la cita. El anestesiólogo consultará directamente con usted antes de su cita tratamiento endodóntico para repasar su historial médico, pre and post-operative instructions, y las tasas de sedación.
