Dr. Quang Luong may recommend IV sedation to help you receive your treatments in comfort. This type of sedation dentistry is designed to make your experience as comfortable as possible, allowing you to receive the care you need without any stress, anxiety or discomfort.
IV (intravenous) sedation is a type of conscious sedation, meaning that while you will be awake for your procedure you will also be completely relaxed. Many patients find that they feel as if they slept through their procedure, and have no memory of the treatment itself. Prior to providing you with IV sedation, our dentist will meet with you one-on-one to discuss your medical history, dental needs and any other relevant factors and ensure that IV sedation is indeed the best option for you. This meeting allows us to ensure that your treatment is tailored to your exact needs and that you are receiving the safest, most effective and most appropriate option possible.
IV sedation works by providing medication directly into your bloodstream. This method not only facilitates a rapid onset of relaxation but also allows our dentist and team to adjust the sedation level as needed, ensuring an optimal state of calm for the duration of the dental procedure. We will monitor you carefully throughout your entire treatment – we take your safety and comfort seriously, and are diligent in watching for any signs of discomfort or adverse reactions to ensure that you receive the care you need.
After your procedure our dentist and team will provide details about post-op care for both the treatment you received and for recovering from the effects of sedation. You will need to have a friend or family member drive you home from your office, as well as have someone available to stay with you for several hours to ensure your safety as the sedation effects wear off gradually.
