SEDATION DENTISTRY OPTIONS
We have a dedicated team of professionals focused on providing you with minimal, moderate or deep sedation, so you can be confident that you will receive the quality care you deserve.
THREE COMFORTABLE LEVELS for satisfying dental experiences
- ORAL SEDATION Administration of local anesthetics in conjunction with orally administered medications that will make you feel calm.
- NITROUS OXIDE: Nitrous oxide (N₂O) administered through a mask that will allow you to inhale this gas whose effect is relaxing and pleasant.
- INTRAVENOUS SEDATION: Intravenous sedation that allows us to perform a totally safe and relaxing procedure for you, since you will be completely asleep and will not remember anything thanks to the medications the doctor will administer.
BENEFITS OF INTRAVENOUS SEDATION

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
Before your procedure is performed.
You will have a consultation with your dentist to determine which type of sedation is most appropriate for your needs. Whether you simply need help relaxing, or you wish to be completely asleep during the procedure, your dentist will explain the entire process to you. He or she will also give you instructions on how to prepare and answer any questions you may have.
The day before your procedure, you will also be contacted by our anesthesiologists to remind you of the instructions and answer any questions you may have.
DURING
Constant monitoring of blood pressure, pulse and oxygen levels during the procedure; your safety is our priority.
AFTER
We will be with you after your appointment and if required, a nurse may accompany you. Since the sedatives may take some time to wear off, you should be aware that you should not drive.
