Sedation Dentistry

Affordable dentist in Kendall

Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry is a medical procedure that involves the administration of sedatives to put you in a relaxed mood right before any dental procedure commences. In conscious sedation, you will remain awake throughout the procedure but you won’t feel any pain. The sedative causes you to relax and eases your fear throughout the procedure.

Fear and anxiety makes millions of people with dental problems to stay away from the dentist. These people believe that local anesthesia is just not enough as it only numbs the pain, but does nothing to allay that inner fear. At Advanced Family Dental, we understand this, which is why our dentists use conscious sedation to ease patients’ fear during a dental procedure.

Types of conscious sedation

Conscious sedation is usually light or moderate. Note that conscious sedation is also called sleep dentistry, although the patient is awake during the procedure. We have different types of sedation dentistry, each for treating different levels of anxiety.

Moderate Sedation

During moderate sedation, you’ll remain conscious, but may have vague knowledge of the procedure afterwards. You’ll have no problem communicating, but you’ll have a groggy feeling while your words will slur. Some patients may sleep off when given a moderate sedation, but they do wake without any problem.

Deep Sedation

Frankly, deep sedation is not really a form of conscious sedation. Patients under deep sedation may be partially or completely unconscious during the dental procedure. Consciousness is not regained until the sedative wears off. Also, it’ll take some time for you to recover from the sedative effects.

Administration of Laughing Gas

Conscious sedation may be administered orally, intravenously, or by inhalation. Laughing gas known clinically as Laughing Gas is administered by inhalation. Laughing Gas is a light form of dental sedation. The dentist at Advanced Family Dental will administer Laughing Gas through a mask. The mask will be placed over your nose while you inhale it. The more gas you inhale, the less pain you’ll perceive. You’ll also experience a euphoric feeling. Once the dental procedure is completed, the effect of the Laughing Gas will wear off.

Avoiding complications

Conscious sedation is a safe procedure. However, just like every medical procedure, there are risk factors. At Advanced Family Dental, we take your safety seriously, and so we employ the best Miami dentists to administer dental sedatives. Our dentists will take your overall health into consideration when selecting a form of sedation for you. Please while discussing you’re your dentist, provide him or her with your medical history and information on any medication that you may be taking.

Light Sedation

This involves minimal sedation. Light sedation puts you in a relaxed mood while you remain alert and awake.

At Advanced Family Dental, we are committed to reviving your dental health.
