Comfortable and Safe Solution for Dental and Oral Surgery Treatments
Conscious sedation is a procedure that helps patients alleviate anxiety
and pain experienced during dental treatments. Sedation allows the
patient to remain calm and comfortable while the treatment is carried
out. Below, we have summarized the key benefits of sedation:
1. Reduces Anxiety and Fear
Fear and anxiety related to dental treatments can be a significant
obstacle for many patients. Some have had unpleasant experiences in the
dental office in the past. Sedation helps patients feel more relaxed,
making the treatment easier to perform.
2. Supports Pain Relief
While modern dental and oral surgery treatments are completely
pain-free, many patients still fear them. Although sedation does not
replace local anesthesia, it can help reduce pain perception, making
patients less sensitive to treatments. This is particularly beneficial
for those who are more sensitive to pain or who experience significant
anxiety about potential discomfort.
3. Longer Treatments
Dental procedures, especially more complex treatments, can take longer
periods of time. Sedation helps patients remain comfortable and calm
during longer treatments without experiencing fatigue, stress, or
anxiety.
4. Minimal Aftereffects
After sedation, patients typically do not experience significant side
effects or aftereffects. Most patients recover quickly and can resume
their normal activities soon after.
5. Safe Procedure
Sedation is performed under strictly controlled conditions with the
presence of an anesthesiologist and assistant, and the patient’s
condition is continuously monitored. Monitoring breathing and heart
rhythm during sedation helps prevent complications and ensures the
patient’s safety throughout the treatment.
6. Wide Range of Applications
Dental sedation can be applied in various treatment situations, such as:
