  Sedation Dentistry
  
  The standard of treating patients using sedation has already been set in the U.S. over the past 30 years by physicians. It is nothing new to patients for operations on knees, feet, wrists, ears, noses...everything. A patient told me the other day that she had to go in for an MRI and that she was quite nervous, so her physician gave her some sedation. Patients ask dentists for sedation and the dentists do everything they can to talk them out of it. Most dentists do not want to go through the additional training and accreditation process that is necessary to sedate patients.
  You wouldn't think of having an ear or nose operation without sedation. But, you move only inches to the teeth and it becomes acceptable to endure time-consuming, strenuous, noisy, and uncomfortable procedures on the most sensitive, personal part of the body (the mouth) with no sedation. Dentists attempt to work outside of the already established standard of using sedation. Hence, we as dentists treat only 50% of the population while physicians treat over 90%.
  I have found that fearful patients mentally have no problem being sedated for dental treatment. If you ask a nervous patient, "Would you rather have this work done in six appointments over the next two months or in one appointment with sedation?", and they look at you like you're crazy. "I'll take the sedation" is all they say.
  If you feel that sedation, which is the standard of care for the rest of the body, is necessary for your dental care, call us.
  
  Types of Sedation
  The sedation we utilize is either Intravenous(IV)aka parenteral or oral sedation (pills) aka enteral. The kind of sedation that we use depends upon the patients.
  1. The patients needs and safety help us come the decision about the kind of sedation that we use.
  2. With either kind of sedation, we can work on patients for a long period of time.
  3. Sedation is very safe.
  4. The sedatives can stay in a patient's system for several hours after the appointment, so we get few complaints of pain after procedures are completed.
