Sedation Dentistry Options

At Rovi Smile Center we offer choices for sedation dentistry, including nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation.

Nitrous Oxide

Nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, is a common option for patients who want to feel relaxed during a dental procedure. It provides a euphoric feeling and pain relief, and it generally wears off quickly after your appointment.

Oral Conscious Sedation

Oral conscious sedation involves an oral medication that is administered about an hour before your appointment. While you will need someone to take you home after your procedure, oral conscious sedation patients feel like themselves again soon afterwards. Instead of being asleep, you will be relaxed but conscious. Some patients do not remember parts of their procedure, and it is considered very safe.

If you have anxiety or fear about going to the dentist, you are a candidate for sedation dentistry. If you have a fear of pain, have had a traumatic dental experience in the past, or the sounds and smells of a dental office make you nauseous, sedation dentistry can help. Some people also have physical reasons — like a bad gag reflex or very sensitive teeth — which make them a good candidate. If you are not sure, ask your dentist.

No. You will be in a deep state of relaxation during your treatment, but you will still be able to breathe on your own and communicate. You will not feel any pain or anxiety, and you may not even remember the procedure afterwards.

Yes. Your vital signs will be monitored throughout your procedure to ensure your safety and comfort at all times.

The duration of sedation depends on the type used and the length of your procedure. Nitrous oxide wears off quickly after your appointment. Oral conscious sedation lasts longer — you will feel groggy for a few hours afterwards, which is why you will need someone to drive you home.

In most cases it only takes two appointments. The first will be a consultation to review your health history and confirm you are a candidate for sedation. The second appointment is when the necessary procedures are performed, which can usually be completed in one visit, though a follow-up may occasionally be required.

No. You may feel a little groggy after some forms of sedation, but after a few hours you will feel like yourself again. You will need to have someone drive you home from your appointment in these cases.

Just about any procedure can be performed with sedation. The sedation is not for the procedure itself, but for the anxiety that accompanies it. Ask your dentist if sedation is available for a particular procedure.

In most cases sedation will not be covered by your insurance provider. We will review your insurance coverage and let you know. If it is not covered, we will provide you with the cost and, if necessary, can put together a financing plan for you.
