Oral Sedation

This is an effective option for nervous patients who would benefit from the relaxing side effects of Vallium at the right dosage, to induce sleep. This helps with anxiety and provides conscious relaxation throughout the dental procedure.

IV sedation (intravenous) and general anesthesia

At Birchmount Dental Group, Dr. Stephen Ing is the onsite anesthesiologist. Dr. Stephen Ing assists in both the deep conscious sedations and general anesthesia. During IV sedation the patient stays conscious and can communicate with the dentist at all times. Some patients find it easier to go under general anesthesia rendering them unconscious for the whole procedure, and then leisurely waking up when it is done. Each patient is different and we help decide what is best for you.
