Doctor Jim Jelinek on the Sedation Options Available

Sedation dentistry and options available, the first thing would be nitrous oxide sedation, which is a nitrous oxide gas and oxygen. It's very safe because the patient's getting oxygen at the same time. It helps people relax, most of the time. Some people, it doesn't work that way for. Some people, it will excite or some people say, “I just don't feel anything.” Any of the sedation we do use we'll also try to reduce the number of stimuli coming in so we might use an eye pillow or something like that.

Another type of sedation is oral sedation where the patient is given a sedative pill. I usually have them come in about an hour early, we give them a pill, we just let them sit and give it a chance to work. The drug that we use, it's in the Valium family so what it does, it produces an amnesia so the patient usually doesn't remember what happens. They might even think they were asleep. Some people might doze off during that procedure.

Then there's IV or intravenous sedation, which is much more predictable. We start an IV line in the arm. IV sedation's really cool. It's probably, if I had a choice, that's the way that I would probably recommend going unless it's a quick, short procedure because the IV, more predictable. When you put the sedative drug in, it's in 15 seconds, you've got your result. What's neat about that too, is say that patient, “Hey, listen, I'm still awake,” you give them a little bit more, 15 seconds—you’re not waiting around like you would with oral sedation with that. We do it that way. It's safe. With IV sedation too, that we do the patient's still breathing on their own. We don't have to intubate for them to do that, that would be general anesthesia. Again, they think they were asleep because they don't remember anything that happened.

Choose From Three Kinds of Sedation to Improve Your Smile Without Fear

Dental anxiety can be a thing of the past in the skilled hands of our dentists and staff. We’ll take our time to make sure you’re completely comfortable during your visits. Besides the warm amenities of our office, we offer these safe sedation options:

  • Laughing Gas – Our most basic form of sedation will be perfect for you if you just need to take the edge off your anxiety. We’ll have you put on a comfortable mask, and then you’ll breathe in a precise mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen. There won’t be any lasting effects after your procedure, and you should be able to drive yourself home.
  • Conscious Oral Sedation – If you require a stronger sedative to soothe your mind and calm your nerves, we’ll give you a prescription pill to take in the office before your procedure starts. You’ll feel groggy but will still be able to communicate with our staff. The effects can last a few hours, so you’ll need someone to drive you home.
  • IV Sedation – If your anxiety is severe or if you’re having a lot of work done, our strongest sedation option may be best for you. Our trained staff will gently give you a sedative drug. It will begin to work quickly and can easily be adjusted by your dentist as needed. Many people remember little or nothing about their visit with this option.

Quit worrying about going to the dentist! Our sedation dentistry in Warrenton will put you completely at ease. Call our office today at 540-253-1377, or use our convenient online form.

I got a deep cleaning done of my entire lower jaw and a couple teeth on my upper jaw. Lots of painkiller shots which is always the worst part for me but it was fairly unpainful this time. The technician was really good. So overall the service was really great.

Common Questions About Sedation Dentistry

Does sedation dentistry work for most patients?

Over the years, we have found that most patients respond well to our sedation options. If you tend to suffer from dental anxiety, we have a sedation method that will work for you. Our goal is to help you relax as much as possible so you can get the care your smile needs. We’ll do our best to make sure your procedure is completely pleasant.

What sedation options are available to me?

At Drs. Yung & Jelinek, you’ll have a choice of three sedation options. We offer inhaled sedation using laughing gas, oral conscious sedation in pill form, and IV sedation that will put you in a dreamlike state. Their sedative effects range from mild to deep and will fit the needs of any patient who is nervous about receiving their dental care.

Are your sedation options safe?

Yes, our sedation dentistry is completely safe because it is expertly administered and monitored by our trained team. Inhaled sedation uses mild laughing gas, which is safe even for children. Oral conscious sedation works using a small, FDA-approved pill, and IV sedation can be adjusted throughout treatment. You can feel confident in our team’s ability to use our dental sedation options for your benefit.

What should I expect after dental sedation?

This can vary from person to person and is based on the type of sedation you receive. Inhaled sedation wears off in minutes, while the effects of oral sedation and IV sedation may last for a few hours. With those two forms, you may feel drowsy or sluggish. You may not remember your procedure, and you may benefit from resting after receiving a heavier form of dental sedation.
