Need to Know
What types of sedation do you offer?
At Downtown Denver Dental, we offer two types of sedation:
- Oral Sedation: A prescribed medication taken before your appointment to help you feel relaxed and at ease.
- IV Sedation: Administered during your appointment by a trained nurse, IV sedation provides a deeper level of relaxation. This option is scheduled based on your specific needs to ensure your safety and comfort.
Will I be awake during sedation dentistry?
It depends on the type of sedation. With oral sedation, you’ll remain awake but deeply relaxed. IV sedation allows for a more profound state of calmness, and while you’re still technically awake, most patients feel drowsy and may not recall much of the procedure.
Is sedation dentistry safe?
Yes, sedation dentistry is safe when performed by trained professionals. Our team takes every precaution to ensure your comfort and safety, monitoring you closely throughout the procedure.
How should I prepare for sedation dentistry?
We’ll provide detailed instructions based on the type of sedation you’ll receive. Common recommendations include avoiding food and drink for a specific time before your appointment and arranging for someone to drive you home afterward.
Can sedation dentistry help with dental anxiety?
Absolutely. Sedation dentistry is specifically designed to help patients with dental anxiety feel calm and comfortable during their visit. It can transform your dental experience and help you maintain better oral health.
Do I need someone to accompany me if I’m sedated?
Yes, for both oral and IV sedation, you’ll need someone to drive you home after your appointment, as the effects can last several hours.
How long does it take for sedation to wear off?
The recovery time varies depending on the sedation type. Oral sedation typically wears off within a few hours, while IV sedation may take a little longer. Rest and hydration can help speed up recovery.
Can sedation dentistry help with my gag reflex?
Yes, sedation dentistry helps relax your body and reduces the sensitivity of your gag reflex, making dental procedures more comfortable.
What if I have special healthcare needs?
Sedation dentistry is a great option for patients with special healthcare needs. We tailor our approach to ensure a comfortable and safe experience for every patient.
