Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation helps you relax without any injections, making it a good choice for patients who are afraid of needles. Instead, you’ll take a pill roughly an hour before your appointment and the effects will kick in by the time your surgery begins.
You’ll experience a calming sensation that will help you feel comfortable throughout the course of your treatment. You’ll remain awake and responsive throughout the procedure, though you’ll have little to no memory of it later.
Rest assured, Dr. Shlafer will continually monitor your vital signs to ensure your safety. Also keep in mind that you’ll need to arrange for a ride to and from your appointment since the medication is taken before you arrive and the effects may linger after treatment.
