IV Sedation
IV Sedation also known as Deep Conscious Sedation is usually used by Oral Surgeons and dentists with specialized training and special certification. With this type of sedation, medications are administered directly into the blood stream. The greatest advantage of IV Sedation is that if someone is not sedated enough, the doctor can administer more medication and the effects are instantaneous. IV Sedation is not used commonly in most dental offices because of the specialized advanced training required and the requirements for certification by the State Board of Dentistry. Dr. Djawdan is the only general dentist in Annapolis with the licensing and anesthesia training to perform IV sedation. The drugs used for IV Sedation are more effective then the same drugs taken orally.
Why IV sedation is better:
- More reliable, immediate results
- Complete relaxation and comfort during procedure
- Quick and less painful recovery than with oral sedation
- Expert treatment administered by a certified IV dentist
