Frequently Asked Questions About Sedation

Is sedation dentistry safe?
Yes, when provided by trained professionals like Dr. Corzo with proper monitoring equipment. Sedation dentistry has an excellent safety record when protocols are followed.
Will I be unconscious during sedation?
With conscious sedation (nitrous, oral, IV), you remain awake but deeply relaxed. You can respond to instructions but may have little memory of the procedure.
Can I eat before sedation?
This depends on the type of sedation. Nitrous oxide has no dietary restrictions, while oral and IV sedation may require fasting. Dr. Corzo provides specific instructions.
How long does sedation last?
Nitrous oxide effects end within minutes of stopping the gas. Oral sedation effects can last 4-6 hours. IV sedation recovery is typically 1-2 hours with full alertness returning gradually.
Can anyone receive sedation dentistry?
Most healthy adults can safely receive sedation. Dr. Corzo evaluates each patient’s medical history and current health to determine the safest and most effective sedation approach.
Will my insurance cover sedation?
Coverage varies by plan and medical necessity. Sedation for complex procedures or medical conditions is more likely to be covered than sedation for anxiety alone.
