What should you expect with Sedation Dentistry?

You will come in to have a consultation with our doctor. We will help to determine the best type of sedation for your needs. At your next appointment, we will administer the sedation per your request. You will be taken to a recovery room where we will give you time to wake up from sedation. It is important that you have a loved one or friend bring you home the same day as your appointment because it is unsafe for you to drive after being sedated. The procedure is done quickly and easily for you in a more comfortable manner.

Frequently Asked Questions about sedation dentistry in Austin & Round Rock, TX

Get in Touch

  • Yes. Sedation is administered by trained professionals and carefully monitored throughout your visit. We review your medical history to ensure safety and comfort.

  • That depends on the type of sedation. With nitrous oxide or oral sedation, you’ll be awake but deeply relaxed. IV sedation may cause you to fall into a light sleep, but you’ll still be responsive.

  • Nitrous oxide wears off within minutes. Oral and IV sedation may take a few hours to wear off, and you’ll need someone to drive you home afterward.

  • Follow the specific instructions provided by your dentist, which may include fasting and arranging transportation if oral or IV sedation is used.

  • Sedation dentistry is ideal for patients with dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, difficulty sitting still, or those undergoing lengthy or complex procedures. Your dentist will help determine the best option based on your health and comfort needs.
