IV sedation is an effective way to undergo various dental procedures comfortably and stress-free. It's important for patients to understand and adhere to specific guidelines before and after the procedure to ensure their safety and the effectiveness of the treatment. This page provides essential information on what to expect, how to prepare, and the necessary steps to follow for IV sedation. We aim to make your experience as smooth and worry-free as possible, so you receive the best care with the utmost comfort.
Preparation for IV Sedation Patients
For those undergoing IV sedation, please follow these important guidelines:
Fasting: Do not eat or drink after midnight before your surgery, including gum, candy, cough drops, and water. Diabetic patients should consult their primary care physician for specific instructions and ensure their appointment is scheduled first thing in the morning.
Morning Appointments: If your surgery is after 2:00 PM, you may eat a light breakfast no later than 6:00 AM.
Dress Code: Remove all oral and facial piercings before your appointment. Wear loose, comfortable clothing and sneakers or boots (no flip-flops). Avoid contact lenses, make-up, nail polish, and perfume.
Post-Surgery Care: Ensure you have a trusted person with you for the rest of the day. Avoid signing important documents and leave valuables, including jewelry and mobile devices, at home or with your companion.
Health and Safety: Bring your rescue inhaler if you have asthma. Mobile devices are not allowed in the surgical area.
Important Guidelines for Your Appointment
When preparing for your appointment, it's essential to arrange for a responsible adult to accompany you. This person should bring you to the clinic, stay in the reception area during your procedure, and drive you home afterward, as you won't be allowed to leave unaccompanied. For patients under 18, a parent or legal guardian must be present, and guardians should be ready to provide proof of guardianship if requested.
Insurance Information for Your Appointment
Keeping your insurance information up-to-date is crucial. Please inform our office promptly if there are any changes to your insurance before your procedure. Remember to bring both your dental and medical insurance cards to your appointment. This helps ensure a smooth process for both your treatment and any necessary insurance procedures.
