Types of Sedation Available at Toronto East Maxillofacial Surgery
There are several different categories of sedation. These are the types of sedation we use at our office:
- Nitrous Oxide
- Intravenous Sedation
- General Anesthesia
Nitrous Oxide or “laughing gas” provides a mild sedation that keeps you conscious but relaxed during the procedure.
Intravenous sedation involves giving a controlled dosage of the medication intravenously, allowing the doctor to provide a greater degree of sedation.
General anesthesia makes the patient completely asleep for the procedure.
If you plan to undergo a dental procedure that involves sedation, you should request a friend or colleague to drive you home.
Our dentist at Toronto East Maxillofacial Surgery suggests that different types of sedation can be used to allow patients to undergo procedures more easily. Please contact us for more information regarding safe and effective sedation in Toronto, ON.
