How does sedation dentistry work?
You will be given a sedative tranquilizer to take one hour prior to your dental appointment. Your companion will accompany you to the office. When you arrive in our office you will be drowsy and you will be escorted to a warm comfortable chair and covered with a thick warm blanket. A medicated air to breath containing nitrous oxide may be given to supplement the sedative tranquilizer. Your level of comfort, sedation and vitals will be continually monitored with medical equipment so that your visit is completely safe. After you are comfortable, Dr. Mello or Dr. Tabib and their experienced clinical team will take care of your sedation and dental needs. You will remain in control but will be unaware of the treatment as if you were snoozing. Afterwards you will have little or no memory of what occurred. When your treatment is completed your companion will take you home. A car service is arranged to get you home quickly and safely. Click here to email Dr.
