Sedation Options<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To be qualified as a candidate for sedation\nit\u2019s important to determine all of your qualifying conditions. This helps a\nmore comprehensive decision to be made for what type of\nsedation you need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u00b7 Oral Sedation – Oral\nSedation is given to a patient via a pill and it is one of the most common ways\nto administer sedation to a patient. It helps the patient to relax while they\nare examined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u00b7 IV sedation \u2013 IV Sedation\nprovides the patient with a similar experience like oral sedation, but it is\nadministered intravenously. Also, it is administered by trained dental staff\nand specialists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u00b7 Nitrous oxide \u2013 Nitrous\nOxide is another type of sedation and it is administered by nitrous oxide gas.\nSimilar to IV sedation it is controlled by your dental staff and specialists.\nAlso, the effects of it occur rather quickly, and once the patient is finished\nthese same effects wear off quickly too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u00b7 General anaesthesia\n\u2013 General Anaesthesia causes the patient to become unconscious and in a sense\ncompletely relaxed. With this form of sedation, the patient enters into a deep\nsleep, and if a patient suffers from high dental anxiety then this would be the\nbest form of sedation for them.
