IV Sedation is a great way for patients to feel comfortable regarding their dental treatments, especially for those that get anxiety or fear visiting the dentist.

At Youth Smiles Dental Center, we utilize IV Sedation to help with a variety of dental procedures so that patients can remain relaxed and calm throughout the procedure.

By utilizing an IV, our staff is able to administer a sedative into the veins, allowing for a quick and effective calming procedure. Once calm and sedated, the treatment begins on the patient. Medication levels are constantly monitored by our specialists and can be adjusted as needed to help the patient remain calm.

IV Sedation is a safe procedure and patients are given the proper instructions for both pre- and post-treatment phases. It is an ideal solution, especially for children that may be prone to movements during their dental treatments.

Patients that receive IV Sedation at Youth Smiles typically have one of the following:

• Low Pain Thresholds
• Very Sensitive Teeth
• Bad Gag Reflexes
• Large Amounts of Dental Work Needed
• The Inability to Remain Calm and Sit Still
