Conscious sedation dentistry is the answer to any of the above circumstances, as well as, pain-free and anxiety-free dental procedures for patients who fear needles and dental procedures, have difficulty with their gag reflex, have very sensitive teeth or have difficulty becoming numb from oral injections. It also provides an opportunity to perform multiple or lengthy dental procedures in a single session.
Sedation or sleep dentistry requires that the patient take a prescribed medication about one hour before the scheduled visit. The patient will arrive at the dentist in a deeply relaxed state, though fully responsive. During the procedure, patients aren't unconscious, but mentally "detached" from what's going on. The sedative usually lasts about six hours and the patient will need a ride to and from the dental appointment. Patients will not remember any of the procedure and will feel as though they were asleep, even though they were wide-awake throughout.
Other types of conscious sedation include inhalation and intravenous sedation. Inhalation sedation (nitrous oxide oxygen, otherwise known as laughing gas) is one of the oldest and most common sedation techniques. Patients recover more quickly and may leave the dental office alone and immediately resume normal activities. Intravenous conscious sedation is also a safe sedation technique. Intravenous sedation requires the patient be monitored for blood pressure, breathing and heart rate. Patients may only leave the office with an escort.
