Oral Sedation in Kissimmee, FL

Take the stress out of dental visits with a simple pill.

Definition

What is Oral Sedation?

We understand that even simple anxiety can make your dental visit challenging. Oral sedation provides a gentle, effective way to help you relax before your procedure even begins.

This method involves taking a prescribed pill shortly before your appointment. The medication doesn't put you to sleep, instead, it creates a feeling of deep calmness and drowsiness. You will remain awake and responsive throughout your visit, but the anxiety will be significantly reduced, and most patients find they have very little or no memory of the actual procedure.

At Kissimmee Oral Surgery, we carefully tailor the dosage based on your specific health needs and anxiety level to ensure a safe and comfortable experience, making your treatment seamless.

  • A gentle approach to ease your dental anxiety.
    Stay awake yet relaxed during your treatment.
    Different from local anesthesia and IV sedation.

Who Benefits from Oral Sedation

Oral Sedation is an excellent choice for patients seeking a safe, gentle way to achieve deep relaxation without the need for an IV. At Kissimmee Oral Surgery, we carefully prescribe and monitor this solution, ensuring your visit is stress free.

Patients with fear of dental treatment
If nervousness about dental visits causes you to delay necessary treatment, oral sedation provides a feeling of deep calmness that begins before you even arrive. This makes essential care accessible and easy.
Patients with sensitive teeth or gums
For those who naturally experience discomfort or sensitivity in the teeth or gums, the sedative effect ensures that you are profoundly relaxed and unaware of minor sensory triggers throughout the procedure.
Patients undergoing multiple or longer procedures
If your treatment plan requires multiple procedures or a longer session, oral sedation is an ideal choice to maintain a consistent, deep state of comfort from start to finish.
Patients who have difficulty sitting still
This form of sedation helps patients relax their bodies and minds, making it easier to stay still for accurate treatment. It also helps to gently subdue an overactive gag reflex, ensuring smooth treatment.
