Facts About Sedation Dentistry

Conscious Oral Sedation
Oral Sedation (a pill taken by mouth) is safe, convenient and economical. When administered by a qualified dentist such as Dr. Kurtz. Oral sedation can be more effective and deliver a deeper relaxation state than other forms of sedation. When you come for your free initial consultation, Dr. Kurtz will review your medical history and will determine if oral sedation is the best sedation option for you.
The Oral Sedation Procedure
The procedure is simple. When you arrive for your treatment you will be given an oral sedative which will put you into a relaxed and comfortable state. You will be awake but very drowsy. The time you spend in the dentists chair will feel like minutes. Before you know it the procedure is over and you will have little recollection of the entire experience.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation-Laughing Gas
Nitrous Oxide is one of the safest and the lightest forms of sedation available. It is non-allergenic and non-irritating. The gas also tends to reduce gag reflexes and saliva flow. Patients will feel totally relaxed during their treatment when sedated with nitrous oxide.
The Nitrous Oxide Sedation Procedure
A small mask will be placed over the patient’s nose and adjusted so that the patient is comfortable. At this time, the patient will be breathing 100% oxygen.
Once the patient is comfortable breathing oxygen, Dr. Kurtz will gradually introduce nitrous oxide. Once the patient feels completely relaxed, Dr. Kurtz will begin the procedure. At the conclusion of the sedation dentistry treatment, the patient will once again receive 100% oxygen (for a minimum of three to five minutes). At the end of this time, the person should feel absolutely back to normal. When you come for your free initial consultation, Dr. Kurtz will review your medical history and will determine if Nitrous Oxide sedation is the best sedation option for you.
