IV Sedation
Do you get nervous when you visit the dentist, or do you suffer from dental anxiety? If you need some extra help being comfortable and relaxed at the dentist, Dr. Stephen Lester offers IV sedation in New Smyrna, Florida, during treatments. If you have an upcoming appointment at Park Avenue Dentistry and are curious whether conscious IV sedation is an option for you, call 386-423-7770 to talk to Dr. Lester and team.
IV (intravenous) sedation is a conscious sedation treatment, meaning that you will be aware of where you are and what is happening, and able to follow any instructions provided by Dr. Lester. Prior to providing you with IV sedation, you will meet with Dr. Lester one-on-one to discuss your medical history, dental needs and any other relevant factors to determine if IV sedation is the best option for you.
IV sedation provides medication directly into your bloodstream to help you relax quickly and feel comfortable during your appointment. This type of sedation is very safe, but we will monitor you closely throughout your entire treatment to ensure that there are no complications. Patients often feel as though they have slept through their treatment following their procedure and do not recall many of the details of their visit.
You will need to bring someone with you to drive you home from our office. We also recommend that someone remain with you for several hours after you have arrived home until the medication has worn off.
We invite you to contact our office today for more information about IV sedation and to schedule your consultation with Dr. Lester. We look forward to providing you with a comfortable dental visit.
