Oral Sedation
Taken by mouth a few hours before your appointment, oral sedation is an anti-anxiety medication that puts you into a very calm state. While the effects last, you’ll feel comfortable and relaxed and won’t be anxious about what is happening around you. Oral medication may last longer than your appointment, so it’s advised that you have someone drive you home afterward.
