Oral Conscious Sedation – Safe & Effective
Do you dread seeing the dentist? If so, you’re not alone. For people with mild to severe dental anxiety, oral conscious sedation can be life-changing. By simply taking a pill an hour before your appointment, you can receive a wholly comfortable and predictable dental experience. Most people snooze through treatment and remember little or none of their care.
Oral conscious sedation is perfect for patients with anxiety or fear, a severe gag reflex, time constraints, physical limitations, difficulty getting numb, and a desire to rest comfortably while receiving dental work.
The medications used in oral conscious sedation have been thoroughly tested by the FDA to ensure safe results. In addition, Dr. Curtis and the entire Bridgeport, Trumbull dental team have received advanced training in sedation dentistry, life support, and CPR. Other safety considerations include:
- Complete medical and drug history
- Age (adults only)
- Airway management
- Pulse and blood pressure monitors
