Sedation Options

  • IV Moderate Sedation

    Relaxed, calm, and minimally aware.

    IV moderate sedation allows you to stay conscious but extremely relaxed. Most patients remember little or nothing from the procedure. This is one of the most popular choices for wisdom teeth removal, implants, and full-arch surgery.

    Benefits:

    Deep relaxation

    Little to no memory of the procedure

    Fast recovery time

    Ideal for mildly anxious patients

    Monitoring:
    Cardiac monitoring, pulse oximetry, blood pressure throughout the procedure.

  • IV Deep Sedation

    Fully unconscious, but breathing on your own.


    IV deep sedation is provided by a medical anesthesiologist for patients who desire a deeper level of unconsciousness. You are fully asleep and unaware of the procedure but do not require a breathing tube.

    Benefits:

    Fully asleep

    No awareness or memory

    Hospital-level safety

    Excellent for long or complex surgeries

    Monitoring:
    Continuous advanced monitoring by an anesthesiologist.

  • Deep Sedation

    Complete unconsciousness with airway control.


    General anesthesia is used for complex cases or patients with severe dental anxiety. This is performed by an anesthesiologist using full airway management and deeper medical monitoring.

    Benefits:

    Full unconsciousness

    Controlled airway and ventilation

    Maximum comfort for long or highly complex procedures

    Monitoring:
    Full anesthesia monitoring including ECG, capnography, BP, oxygenation, and airway management.
