Frequently Asked Questions

- Patients with a strong gag reflex or difficulty sitting still
How do I know if sedation dentistry is right for me?
The best way to determine if sedation dentistry is suitable for you is to consult with your dentist. They will assess your health history, dental anxiety level, and the specifics of your dental procedure.
Will I feel any pain with sedation dentistry?
One of the primary benefits of sedation dentistry is the reduction or elimination of discomfort during dental procedures. Depending on the type of sedation, you may feel completely relaxed and pain-free, with little memory of the procedure afterward.
How long does it take to recover from dental sedation?
Recovery time varies depending on the type of sedation used. Nitrous oxide wears off quickly, often allowing patients to drive themselves home after the procedure. Oral sedatives and IV sedation may require a longer recovery period, and you'll need someone to drive you home.
Does insurance cover sedation dentistry?
Coverage for sedation dentistry varies by insurance provider and plan. Some insurance plans may cover sedation for certain procedures, especially if deemed medically necessary. It's essential to check with your insurance company for specific coverage details.
Can children receive sedation dentistry?
Yes, sedation dentistry is also available for children, especially those who are anxious, have special needs, or require extensive dental work. Pediatric dentists are specially trained to determine the safest and most appropriate sedation options for children.
