While most people are familiar with at least one of the types of sedation dentistry that we offer at Meadows Dental Group (nitrous oxide sedation dentistry, oral sedation dentistry, and IV sedation dentistry), there are still sometimes questions surrounding each procedure.
Below are some answers to questions patients frequently ask, but if you have any further questions about sedation dentistry, please don't hesitate to call our office, (303) 790-2323.
Which type of sedation dentistry is best?
There is no "best" type of sedation dentistry. Nitrous oxide sedation dentistry is the least expensive option, but what's right for you will depend on your anxiety about dental procedures, the type of dental treatment that's required, and your individual needs. We can explain all of the sedation dentistry options with you in a complimentary consultation.
What are the benefits of sedation dentistry?
The biggest benefit of sedation dentistry - whichever type you choose - is that it allows you to be treated by a dentist, without worry or anxiety.
Will my dental insurance plan cover sedation dentistry?
Reimbursement for sedation dentistry varies from dental insurance company to dental insurance company, not just in Denver and Colorado, but across the U.S. In some instances, sedation dentistry is covered, typically with wisdom teeth extractions and periodontal scalings and root planings. For a specific answer to this question, give us a call at (303) 790-2323, and we can help you decipher your dental insurance coverage.
What's the difference between "sleep dentistry" and "sedation dentistry"?
One of the types of sedation dentistry that we offer at Meadows Dental Group is oral sedation dentistry. This type of sedation dentistry is sometimes referred to as "sleep dentistry" and, ironically, "conscious sedation." The latter term, technically, is more accurate, because you don't actually sleep during your treatment. You're awake, but comfortable and relaxed, and afterward, you probably won't remember much about your time in the dental chair. An hour might pass, but it will feel more like a minute.
Can I drive myself to my dental appointment?
That depends on the type of sedation dentistry you choose. With nitrous oxide sedation dentistry (laughing gas), you can drive, but we recommend that you allow extra time after your appointment to rest in our waiting area until all of the effects of the sedation have worn off. With oral sedation dentistry and IV sedation dentistry, you'll need someone to accompany you to your appointment, and you'll need a responsible caregiver to stay with you for two to four hours at home.
