Oral Conscious Sedation

Oral conscious sedation is a safe and effective method to ease anxiety during dental procedures. Dr. Anne Casson, our compassionate dentist at Littleton Family Dental, offers this option to ensure a more relaxed and comfortable experience for patients with dental anxiety or complex procedures.

How Oral Conscious Sedation Works

Administered through a prescribed oral medication, this sedation method induces a relaxed state while allowing patients to remain conscious and responsive. It reduces anxiety and discomfort, making dental visits more manageable for those with fear or apprehension.

Suitability for Various Procedures

Oral conscious sedation is commonly used for routine dental cleanings to complex procedures like extractions or root canals. We will evaluate your medical history and discuss the procedure’s specifics to determine if oral conscious sedation is suitable for you.

Advantages of Oral Conscious Sedation

This sedation option offers several benefits, including increased comfort, reduced anxiety and the ability to complete multiple procedures in one visit. Patients often find it to be a practical solution for maintaining their oral health without the stress associated with dental visits.

Post-Sedation Monitoring and Recovery

After the procedure, patients may feel drowsy, so arranging for someone to drive them home is advised. We ensure proper post-sedation monitoring and provide instructions for a smooth recovery.
