It may be that scheduling your procedures alongside of oral conscious sedation is the most appropriate answer. As such, you can:
- Reduce the number of appointments or trips that you make to our office
- Feel as if you’re “daydreaming” throughout the procedure
- Overcome mild to severe apprehension regarding the dental care experience
- Relax without having to think about what’s going on around you
Please know that Dr. Hornbrook and Dr. Souza will still use local anesthesia when appropriate to numb the areas of your mouth that are being treated. You will never have to worry about experiencing discomfort during routine or sedation dentistry appointments. We take your comfort very seriously. In some situations, oral sedation may not even be necessary.
After Your Appointment
All oral sedation patients will need to have a family or friend escort them home from their procedure, as it can take a few hours for the sedative to fully leave your system. We will provide you with written home care instructions for you to review before and after the appointment, so that nothing is overlooked.
