Types of Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry offers a spectrum of options to cater to different anxiety levels and patient preferences. Here are the most common types of sedation dentistry:
- Oral Conscious Sedation: Oral conscious sedation involves mild sedatives, such as oral medication. Patients remain awake and aware, experiencing reduced anxiety.
- Nitrous Oxide Sedation: Commonly referred to as “laughing gas,” nitrous oxide is inhaled through a mask placed over the nose. It induces relaxation and euphoria, and its effects wear off quickly after the procedure.
- IV Sedation: IV sedation allows for deep relaxation. Patients may not remember much of the procedure afterward. It’s often used for more extensive treatments. With deep sedation, patients are on the brink of consciousness and can be awakened when necessary. However, they’re unlikely to remember the details of the procedure.
- General Anesthesia: Reserved for complex dental procedures, general anesthesia renders the patient completely unconscious.
- Local Anesthetics: While not a form of sedation, local anesthetics have pain-relieving properties that are important in dentistry. This technique involves injecting numbing medication into the treatment area, ensuring you remain pain-free throughout the procedure. We commonly use local anesthetics alongside minimal or moderate sedation for the most comfortable experience possible.

The Sedation Dentistry Process
Overall Health Assessment
Our Jupiter dentist will begin with a thorough evaluation of your medical history, current health status, and any medications you may be taking. This assessment helps determine the most suitable sedation method and dosage. If your sedation appointment is on a different day, our dentist will provide pre-appointment instructions.
Sedation Administration
Our dentist will then administer the chosen method of sedation on the day of your dental treatment. However, if you choose oral conscious sedation, you’ll receive it in a pill or liquid form to take at home before arriving.
Monitoring Our Patients
Regardless of the sedation method, our dentist and team will continuously monitor your vital signs, including blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen levels, to ensure their safety throughout the procedure.
The Dental Procedure
Once you’re adequately sedated, Dr. David can perform the necessary dental work. The patient remains comfortable and relaxed during this time.
Recovery
After the procedure is complete, you’ll be monitored in a recovery area until you’re alert and stable enough to be discharged. The effects of sedation will gradually wear off, but patients may feel drowsy for some time afterward.
We’ll provide post-sedation instructions, and you’ll need someone to accompany you home as you may still feel the effects of sedation.
