Step-by-Step Process of Sedation Dentistry

1. Initial Consultation and Assessment
   The first step is a consultation with Dr. Coon to discuss your concerns and determine which sedation method is correct for you. We’ll also review your medical history to ensure that the sedation approach is safe for you.
2. Sedation Administration
   Once you’ve chosen your sedation option, we’ll make sure you’re comfortable before we begin. For Valium, you’ll take your pill the night before and again on the day of your appointment. For Nitrous Oxide, we’ll provide a mask through which you’ll breathe in the gas, helping you feel at ease almost instantly.
3. Procedure Comfort
   Throughout your treatment, we’ll monitor your comfort closely. If you opt for Nitrous Oxide, we can adjust the level of sedation as needed to keep you relaxed. If you’re using Valium, you’ll be in a calm, comfortable state for the duration of your visit.
4. Completion and Recovery
   Once we complete your procedure, we will monitor you until the effects of sedation wear off. If you’ve chosen Nitrous Oxide, the gas wears off quickly, and you’ll feel back to normal almost immediately. If you’ve taken Valium, you may feel a little drowsy afterward, so it’s a good idea to arrange for someone to drive you home.

Who Can Benefit from Sedation Dentistry?

• Need multiple treatments in one visit.
• Have sensitive teeth or gums.
• Have a low pain threshold.
• Struggle with maintaining a comfortable position during treatment.
• Have a strong gag reflex.
