How Does IV Sedation Work?
IV sedation is a form of dental anesthesia administered through an IV to reduce unease and bring patients into a deep state of relaxation. You may or may not remain conscious while the sedation circulates throughout your body since each patient experiences deep relaxation differently ranging from a dream-like state to falling asleep. This type of sedation dentistry is often used for complex procedures like dental implants. Dr. Leslee Timm specializes in helping patients overcome fear and anxiety over dental treatments. Sedation dentistry is a wonderful tool in helping patients who feel overwhelmed and anxious at the dental office. Let us show you how dental anesthesia like IV sedation can help you.

General Anesthesia
Often a favored sedation dentistry option for complex dental treatment cases such as full mouth dental implant placement, general anesthesia combines several medications for the purpose of rendering the patient totally unconscious. Only specially trained practitioners like the ones we have on staff at Crestline Dental Implant Center can provide this level of anesthesia
Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous oxide (commonly known as тАЬlaughing gasтАЭ) is inhaled through a mask prior to your treatment. As one of the least invasive sedation dentistry options, this is a favorite for less complex treatments or patients with light to moderate anxiety. Patients are usually alert and relaxed during the procedure and recover quickly once the mask is removed.
