The Benefits of Sedation Dentistry for Patients at Espire Dental in Broomfield, CO

Dental anxiety should never stop you from receiving the care you need. Here are just a few benefits of sedation dentistry:

Reduces Anxiety and Fear: Many patients feel nervous about dental visits, but with sedation, you’ll feel calm and relaxed from start to finish.
Perfect for Complex Procedures: If you’re undergoing a more complex or lengthy treatment, sedation can help make the time pass comfortably and quickly.
Improves Comfort: Sedation reduces any discomfort you may feel during your procedure, whether from the procedure itself or from sitting still for an extended period.
Fewer Appointments: With sedation, we can often complete more treatments in one visit, helping reduce the number of appointments needed.

Sedation Options Offered at Espire Dental Broomfield

Sedation dentistry is an excellent choice for patients who experience dental anxiety, have a low pain tolerance, or are undergoing lengthy procedures. Here’s a closer look at the sedation options we offer at Espire Dental in Broomfield:‍

Oral Sedation: With oral sedation, you'll take a prescribed medication before your appointment to help you feel relaxed. Often referred to as a “conscious sedation,” oral sedation keeps you awake during the procedure, but you’ll feel deeply calm and might not remember much of the visit. It’s a great option if you have mild to moderate anxiety about dental treatments. Ideal for patients with dental anxiety, those needing multiple treatments in one visit, and those who prefer a less invasive sedation option. You must take the medication about an hour before your appointment and have someone drive you to and from the office.
IV Sedation: IV sedation, administered directly into your bloodstream, provides a deeper level of relaxation. This form of sedation works quickly, allowing us to adjust the level of sedation throughout the procedure. With IV sedation, you’ll be in a deeply relaxed state and may even fall asleep during your treatment. Many patients don’t remember much, if any, of the procedure afterward. Ideal for patients with significant dental anxiety, those undergoing lengthy or complex treatments, or patients who want to “sleep” through their visit. IV sedation requires careful monitoring by our trained professionals to ensure your safety and comfort throughout your procedure.

Will I be completely unconscious during sedation dentistry?

With oral and IV sedation, you’re not fully unconscious. Instead, you’ll be deeply relaxed, and while you may feel drowsy, you’ll still be able to respond to instructions. Many patients don’t remember the procedure afterward.

Is sedation dentistry safe?

Yes! Sedation dentistry is safe for most patients. Our team is specially trained in administering both oral and IV sedation, and we carefully monitor you throughout the entire process to ensure your safety and comfort.

How long will the sedation effects last?

The effects of sedation can last for a few hours after your procedure. We recommend having a trusted friend or family member drive you to and from the appointment. It would be best if you also planned to rest for the remainder of the day after receiving sedation.

Can I eat before my sedation appointment?

For IV sedation, we’ll ask you to refrain from eating or drinking for at least 8 hours before your appointment. For oral sedation, specific instructions will be provided based on the type of medication prescribed.

‍

Will my dental insurance cover sedation dentistry?

Coverage for sedation dentistry can vary depending on your insurance plan and the procedure you’re having done. We’ll work with you to explore your options and provide a clear estimate of costs before your appointment.

Am I a good candidate for sedation dentistry?

If you suffer from dental anxiety, have a low pain threshold, or are undergoing a lengthy procedure, you may be a great candidate for sedation dentistry. We’ll review your medical history and discuss your options to ensure sedation is a safe and practical choice for you.
