Oral Sedation

What is Oral Sedation?

Oral sedation can be administered to your child to make their time with us more comfortable. It is not uncommon for children to be frightened over their dental appointment, especially if more complicated work is needed. We offer partial to full sedation that will make their appointment much more comfortable. With a quick consultation with Dr. Mina, we can determine the best type of oral sedation for your child’s needs.

Why would your child need Oral Sedation?

Oral sedation is ideal for children who are very anxious over their dental appointment. Children who are unable to sit still to have work done will benefit from oral sedation because treatment can be provided to them in a safe, efficient manner. Oral sedation is completely safe, as it is customized for each individual patient. 

What makes your child a good candidate for Oral Sedation?

Oral sedation is ideal for healthy pediatric patients who are able to undergo sedation. Before any sedation is administered, you will come in to have a consult and examination by Dr. Mina. We offer kid-friendly sedation options that are suitable for all different types of kids. This is why many of our patients are able to benefit from their sedation choices.

What can you expect with Pediatric Oral Sedation?

First, you and your child will come in for a consultation. The consultation involves a thorough health and medical history of your child to determine if oral sedation is safe. We will then administer the sedation at their next appointment as needed. We provide many different types of sedation and monitor your child while it is being administered. Our goal is to make your child’s appointment with us comfortable and easier than ever before.
