IV Sedation For Comfortable Dental Care

March 23, 2017

Imagine walking into a dentist office without any worries or concerns. You trust the team at your dentist office, and you have no anxiety about what is about to happen.

Why? It could be because you are coming to New Albany Implants, where you can receive IV sedation dentistry.

IV sedation is an excellent option for many patients at our dentist office in New Albany, IN. With IV sedation, we can complete complicated procedures in a single visit. And people with moderate to severe dental anxiety can receive the dental care they need to keep their mouths healthy.

Call us today at 888-469-3982 or contact us online if you have questions about IV sedation or other ways we can reduce your anxiety about dental care.

How Sedation Dentistry Could Help You

Believe it or not, sedation dentistry goes back at least 160 years when people used laughing gas (nitrous oxide) during what could be painful dental procedures.

IV sedation is an example of how sedation dentistry has become more effective with time.

In general, dental sedation helps patients who are dealing with dental anxiety or who are undergoing complicated treatments. Here are some of the reasons our patients find sedation dentistry helpful:

▸ It keeps them calm throughout their treatment.

▸ It prevents them from feeling any pain during the procedure.

▸ It helps them receive treatment without any memory of what happened.

▸ It allows them to complete their treatment in a single visit.

You may be able to relate to one or more of these. You also may have your own reasons for being interested in sedation dentistry.

In either case, your comfort is an essential part of your care at New Albany Implants.

Why Dental Sedation Matters To Us

For Dr. Ron Receveur, patient comfort is a matter of personal importance. He was born with a partial cleft and a congenitally missing tooth. As a result, he made a lot of visits to the dentist as a child.

Those experiences affected how he wanted to approach dental care for every patient. He wants anyone who sits in our dental chairs to feel as comfortable as possible. Part of doing that means being able to provide sedation dentistry.

Many dentists offer some form of dental sedation, but few dentists complete the training to be able to offer IV sedation. In Indiana, dentists must complete 60 hours of training, demonstrate their ability, and obtain a permit.

Instead of viewing this as an obstacle, Dr. Receveur saw this as an opportunity to help more patients receive the dental care they needed and deserved.

How IV Sedation Compares To Other Kinds Of Dental Sedation

As we noted above, IV sedation is one of the options available to you. Here’s a quick overview of different kinds of sedation dentistry:

▪︎ Nitrous oxide works quickly and continuously as long as the patient is breathing the gas. Minutes after you start to inhale nitrous oxide, you feel its effects.

When your treatment is over, you feel like yourself in a few minutes by exhaling any remaining gas. This is generally recommended for patients with mild dental anxiety.

▪︎In a way, IV sedation combines the best of the other kinds of dental sedation.

IV sedation takes effect quickly, but its effects are strong. IV sedation can be adjusted during your treatment to ensure that you feel nothing.

While IV sedation works fast, it does take some time to wear off. Again, you will need a family member or friend to take you home if you receive IV sedation.

Find Out How IV Sedation Could Help You

If dental anxiety has made it difficult for you to receive dental care, our team at New Albany Implants understands. We have helped many patients in similar situations with IV sedation and other comfort options.

I’m the type of person that is scared of the dentist have been my whole life. I scheduled consultation with Dr Ron and he answered all my questions and more. He and his staff are great they made me feel comfortable the whole time. They used sedation for my implant procedure and it was the best decision I have ever made!! I had zero pain whatsoever. The best thing is that they have gave me the ability to smile again and to be happy. Thank you to everyone at New Albany Implants. I recommend them to anyone needing dental implants.

Amazing experience. If anyone is anxious about seeing a dentist I can assure you don’t have to be with Dr. Receveur. My only regret is not having it done sooner. His staff is pretty awesome too.

I recently had implants put in by Dr. Receveur. I was scheduled to have sedation that morning, but wasn't able to due to my sugar issues from diabetes. He assured me he would keep me comfortable so I agreed to go ahead with the procedure. He did just that, he kept me comfortable as promised and I didn't feel a thing. During the procedure he also talked to me the whole time explaining what he was doing, which also helped ease my anxiety. The entire staff there are so nice and informative, they can answer any questions you may have. All I can say is to anyone that is hesitant to have this procedure done, I honestly wish I would have had this done a long time ago! Dr. Receveur and his staff are AMAZING, and I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat!
