Every day, people neglect their smiles, developing from dangerous gum disease (linked to severe disorders like heart attacks, strokes, systemic infections and cancers,) to disfiguring decay that can lead to lack of confidence and en bone loss. That is why relaxation has been an important focus in my office and why have invested time into licensed IV Sedation dentist myself. have just completed course of study in Pittsburgh at Duquesne University to administer IV Sedation for dental treatment. 

IV Sedation dentistry is an advanced surgical anesthetic technique that allows patients to completely relax any dental procedure.  Also kn as “deep conscious sedation,” this technique allows medication to be administered directly into the bloodstream. If we discover that you are not completely comfortable, we can immediately increase the level of medication with instant results. It is considered to be vy safe because the sedation is so carefully controlled or titrated to me exacting level than oral sedation.  It is superior to Nitrous Oxide or laughing gas. 

Once the IV medication is administered, you will completely relax and dental treatment can proceed in safe, warm, anxiety-free environment, pain or trauma.

Your vital signs will be continually monitored with pulse oximetry, EKG, blood pressure, and breath monitors to ensure that you are safe and relaxed tt the dental procedure. You will be awake and responsive your treatment, but in deep of relaxation and will have little or no memory of the procedure.

It is important to remember that not all dentists can administer IV Sedation. To properly administer sedation intravenously, dentists are expected to successfully complete formal training. Only dentists who have completed an advanced education program accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation can be licensed to safely administer IV Sedation.
