Also known as “twilight sleep,” IV sedation is a good option for patients who require a high level of sedation to receive treatment. Dr. Jonathan Odinsky may recommend this type of sedation to help you relax completely while you receive needed treatment.
IV (intravenous) sedation is a conscious sedation option. That means you will remain somewhat aware of your surroundings and be able to follow any instructions from your dental team. Before you can receive IV sedation, you must meet with your dentist to discuss your medical history, dental needs, and any other relevant factors to determine if it is a good fit for you.
