What is conscious sedation and do I need it?
Many people suffer from severe anxiety when they visit the dentist. If this is you, then conscious sedation may be the right option for you. During conscious sedation you won’t be fully asleep, but you will have little or no recollection of the procedure. A licensed, medical anesthesiologist will come to our office to perform your sedation and monitor your vital signs throughout the procedure. A friend or family member should pick you up after your appointment, as you will be unable to drive yourself when your procedure is complete.
