Dr. Ken Taylor, DDS, and his experienced team in Mesquite, TX, are committed to providing personalized and compassionate care to ensure a positive dental experience.
Understanding Oral Sedation
What is Oral Sedation?
Oral sedation involves taking prescribed medication before your dental appointment to help you relax. The medication, usually in the form of a pill, is taken about an hour before the procedure. This form of sedation is safe and effective, making it an excellent choice for patients with dental anxiety or those undergoing lengthy or complex procedures.
How Oral Sedation Works
The sedative medication works by calming your central nervous system, reducing anxiety, and inducing a state of relaxation. While you will remain awake and able to respond to instructions, you will feel much more at ease during your dental treatment. The effects of oral sedation can last for several hours, so it is important to have someone accompany you to and from your appointment.
