— THE PROCEDURE

Adjustable, monitored, the deepest calm available.

A small IV line goes into your arm — and the medication is titrated in real time, so we adjust the depth of sedation second by second to keep you exactly where you need to be: deeply relaxed, breathing on your own, fully monitored.

Most patients describe IV sedation as ‘falling asleep and waking up done.’ It’s the gold standard for surgical implants, wisdom teeth removal, and patients with severe dental phobia. You’ll need a driver and a quiet evening at home.

  • Sedation depth adjusted in real time
  • Continuous monitoring of vitals throughout
  • Most patients have no memory of the procedure
  • Ideal for surgery and severe dental anxiety

— GOOD TO KNOW

Frequently asked questions

No. IV sedation keeps you breathing on your own and able to respond to verbal cues. General anesthesia (in a hospital) puts you completely under. IV sedation is in between — deep, comfortable, but safer for outpatient settings.
