How Oral Conscious Sedation Works
Oral conscious sedation is very straightforward; before your appointment, you’ll take a prescribed medication (usually in the form of a small pill). By the time you’re seated in the chair, its effects will have kicked in and you’ll feel totally relaxed, unstressed, and ready for treatment. It’s recommended that you have someone bring you to your appointment and take you home afterward if you’re undergoing dental sedation.
