Oral Sedation
What Is Oral Sedation?
Oral sedation is a safe, effective way to help you feel calm and at ease during dental treatment. Taken in pill form before your appointment, it allows you to remain conscious and responsive while feeling deeply relaxed — many patients recall very little of the procedure afterward. It's an ideal option for longer treatments or for patients who simply want a stress-free experience.
