IV Sedation Can Change Everything About Your Dental Experience

Relax. Rest. Wake Up With Your Treatment Complete.

If booking a dental visit ranks somewhere on your joy scale between waiting in line at the DMV and doing your taxes, you are far from alone. For many people, even the faint sound of a dental tool is enough to trigger an immediate, instinctual urge to run for the hills. Dental anxiety is entirely real and common, and can be responsible for years of skipped checkups.

At Advance Dentistry we want to change this, and one of the ways we do is IV sedation. Instead of white-knuckling the armrests or counting ceiling panels, you step into a state of total, uninterrupted calm, and wake up when the work is finished.

What IV Sedation Actually Feels Like

People often ask if IV sedation means being completely put under like a major hospital operation. The answer is, it is actually a specialized depth of relaxation known as twilight sedation. You remain peaceful while the sights and sounds of the room fade into the background.

One of the best parts is what happens to your perception of time. A two-hour procedure feels like it lasted three seconds. You settle in, and wake up to a fully restored smile without feeling like you sat through a lengthy procedure.

Safety Covered Down to the Second

Peace of mind comes from knowing you are in capable, highly trained hands. Before any treatment begins, our doctors review your medical history and consult with your primary care provider if necessary. Throughout your appointment, two dedicated team members trained in Advanced Cardiac Life Support keep watch over your vital signs. You are never left alone for a single moment.

Your only job is to recruit a friend or family member as your designated driver. They drop you off at our doors, hang out while you relax, and chauffeur you back home to kick back for the rest of the day.
