How Oral Sedation Works

Deep relaxation — starting before you arrive

💊

Taken Before Your Appointment

Prescribed sedative tablet taken about 1 hour before. By the time you arrive, you're already deeply relaxed.

😌

Profoundly Calm

Deeply relaxed and drowsy — anxiety completely eliminated. Most patients have little to no memory of the appointment.

🧠

Ideal for Moderate–Severe Anxiety

For patients beyond what nitrous oxide addresses who prefer a pill to an IV needle.

🚗

Companion Required

Sedative impairs driving for the rest of the day. A responsible adult must accompany you to and from the appointment.

✅

CDCP Coverage Accepted
