When you need a filling or some other dental procedure, sedation dentistry may be the answer. Sedation dentistry involves the use of various types of drugs to help you relax during your appointment. These drugs range from nitrous oxide to oral conscious sedation to local anesthetics. Sedation dentistry is recommended for patients with low pain tolerance, weak gag reflex, or other physical handicaps.The benefits of sedation dentistry are numerous. The first is that it eliminates the pain of oral surgery. This type of sedation may last one or two hours, and patients can even sleep during the procedure. Another benefit of sedation is that it creates a sense of peace and comfort for patients who are nervous or afraid of the dentist. Sedation dentistry may be the best option for you, but be sure to discuss any medical conditions and medications with your dentist.
