What Exactly Is Sedation Dentistry?
Essentially, sedation dentistry means using medication and other palliative treatments to help our patients stay calm and comfortable during their dental procedure. This type of dental treatment is a great option for patients with a sensitive gag reflex, problems sitting still, complex treatment needs, and general dental anxiety.
Paramus Dental Specialists offers a variety of sedation techniques, knowing that each patient is different and has their own set of needs and concerns:
Laughing gas, or nitrous oxide, is a mild sedation technique that involves breathing in gas through a mask, keeping you awake and responsive while allowing you to relax.
Oral sedation involves taking a prescription medication, such as a benzodiazepine, before your procedure to reduce your anxiety and deepen your relaxation.
IV sedation is performed by a trained medical professional and creates a deep level of sedation, making you drowsy but not completely unconscious.
General anesthesia puts you to sleep and allows you to feel absolutely nothing during your treatment.
Whether you are from Lyndhurst, Rutherford, Dumont, Mahwah, Saddle Brook, East Rutherford, or somewhere else in the area, we encourage you to call and set up a free consult to discuss your best sedation dentistry option. Every patient is different, and we want to provide a solution that is right for you and your individual needs.
What Procedures Necessitate Sedation?
Every patient is different, so it depends on your individual needs. But we commonly offer sedation for the following treatments:
Wisdom tooth extraction
Dental implantation
Root canal therapies
Periodontal surgeries
Full mouth reconstructions
Cosmetic procedures
Our patients from Midland Park, Teaneck, Emerson, Demarest, and other areas throughout Bergen County prefer us for our wide variety of treatments and associated sedation options. Whatever need you have, we will work with you to find the best approach to restoring your smile and oral health.
Common Concerns About Sedation Dentistry
Is it safe? Yes. Our highly skilled team has been trained in administering sedation in a safe and effective manner. We will monitor your vital signs closely during the procedure to ensure your comfort and safety.
Will I be awake for my procedure? It depends on how you are sedated. With nitrous or oral sedatives, you are going to be awake but very relaxed. IV sedation will make you very drowsy, and general anesthesia will put you into a deep sleep.
How long does sedation last? Laughing gas will wear off quickly; oral and IV sedation typically take a few hours to go away.
Is it safe for children? Certain options are available for kids, particularly those who have bad anxiety or need extensive work done.
