How IV Sedation Works

Intravenous conscious sedation (IV sedation) involves administering anesthesia through an IV to reduce anxiety and induce a state of relaxation. Most patients feel like they are in a dream state when the anesthesia is circulating through the body but are still awake, while others fall asleep. This type of sedation is often necessary when patients are undergoing more complex procedures, such as dental implants or wisdom teeth removal.

Our periodontist administers IV sedation and understands that some patients have a high level of fear or anxiety and procedures can be overwhelming or uncomfortable. IV sedation is a convenient solution for many patients.
