Frequently Asked Questions
What is sedation dentistry, and who is it recommended for?
Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients relax during dental treatment, and it's recommended for patients who feel anxious or fearful about dental visits, have difficulty sitting still for longer procedures, or need multiple treatments completed in a single appointment. At Revive Dentistry, Dr. Matt Smith evaluates each patient individually to determine whether sedation is appropriate and which option best fits their needs.
What's the difference between nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation?
The main difference between these sedation options is the depth of relaxation and how they're administered. Nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, is inhaled and wears off within minutes; oral sedation is taken in pill form before the appointment for a deeper, longer-lasting calm; and IV sedation is administered directly into the bloodstream for the most controlled, deeper level of relaxation, often used for more complex procedures.
Is sedation dentistry safe?
Sedation dentistry is considered safe when administered and monitored by a trained dental professional, which is standard practice at Revive Dentistry. Dr. Matt Smith reviews each patient's full medical history and current medications beforehand to select the safest sedation option and monitors patients closely throughout the procedure.
Will I be asleep during a sedated dental procedure?
With most sedation options used at Revive Dentistry, you'll remain conscious but deeply relaxed rather than fully asleep. You may respond to instructions during the procedure, but many patients report little to no memory of the treatment afterward, especially with oral or IV sedation.
Can sedation dentistry be used for routine procedures, or only complex ones?
Sedation dentistry can be used for both routine and complex procedures, depending on the patient's comfort level and anxiety around dental visits. Some patients choose mild sedation, like nitrous oxide, even for a standard cleaning or filling, while more involved treatments may call for oral or IV sedation to keep the patient relaxed throughout a longer appointment.
