At Emery Village Dental, we offer several levels of sedation for your comfort. We often hear questions about sedation dentistry, like "How long does it take for the effects of dental sedation to wear off?" or "Will I need someone to accompany me home after my appointment?"
Today we will review the different types of dental sedation in North York that we offer, and what you can expect.
Nitrous Oxide in North York
Nitrous oxide is one of the lightest levels of sedation that we can use with most types of procedures.
It's delivered through a mask you wear during your procedure; it's a combination of nitrous oxide and oxygen. When we remove the mask after you complete your procedure, the nitrous leaves your system without any lingering side effects.
IV Sedation
This is the deepest level of sedation we offer. Medication is delivered intravenously and adjusted as needed throughout your procedure while we monitor your heart rate and vital signs continually.
This type of sedation is ideal for those with severe dental phobias, a lot of procedures to complete at once, or special needs.
