What is oral sedation?

Oral sedation is a great option for many healthy adults. Dr. Filson uses some very safe, gentle medication in the form of a small pill. Often patients can be comfortable sedated with just one small pill!

What is an oral sedation appointment like?

Our doctors will give you a small pill to take an hour before your appointment. Your companion will bring you to the office, where we will start monitoring your vital signs. Then we will assess whether you need any more medication. Once you are relaxing comfortably in the dental chair, we'll cover you with a warm blanket. We'll begin the dentistry once you are totally relaxed. Before you know it, the appointment will be over!
