Canal, DMD, and Dr. Ben Calem, DMD, treat patients using this process daily.
Options for SedationPatients who are considering the use of sedatives often wonder about how they will impact their experience, both during a treatment and during their aftercare. It depends on the sedation used, and there are a few options. If you have questions about which is best for you, all you need to do is ask.
Oral Sedation: This involves taking a pill an hour or so before the procedure to induce a euphoric, anxiety-free state. Our office requests that you have a ride to and from your procedure if you elect for this option, for safety reasons. The pill wears off within a few hours.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation: This process uses anesthetic gas as a sedative, and it allows patients to return to normal within a few minutes, making it easy for those who plan to drive to and from a procedure themselves.
