Common Questions
Sedation Dentistry FAQ
Will I need a driver after sedation?
For oral sedation, yes. Arrange a ride home as the effects can persist for several hours. Nitrous oxide wears off quickly and most patients can drive themselves home.
Is sedation dentistry safe?
Yes, when administered by a trained dental professional. We review your complete medical history and current medications before recommending any sedation option.
Can children receive sedation?
Nitrous oxide is safe and commonly used for children who are anxious or require longer procedures. We assess each child individually and discuss all options with parents.
