Sedation in brief
Sedation is a method in which medication given through a vein calms the patient and makes them drowsy. In the conscious sedation used in dental treatment, the patient keeps breathing on their own; most patients do not remember most of the procedure.
Sedation is not the treatment itself but a way of getting through treatment more comfortably. Local anesthesia is also given for pain control. At our clinic, sedation is given by an anesthesiologist and the patient is monitored throughout the procedure.
Who can sedation be suitable for?
The decision on sedation is made at the examination, assessing the scope of the treatment together with your general health. The situations where it is most often chosen:
Dental anxietyPatients who find it hard to sit in the chair and have put off treatment for years.
Long surgical proceduresProcedures such as several implants or impacted tooth removal.
Strong gag reflexPeople who gag when instruments are in their mouth.
Many treatmentsPatients planning to have several treatments in one session.
Anxiety about local anesthesiaPatients who are very wary of the numbing injection.
Special situationsOther situations the dentist considers suitable; the decision is made at the examination.
The difference between sedation and general anesthesia
The two methods are often confused. For adult dental treatment, sedation is usually enough.
