Patient Information
What to Expect
We want you to feel informed and confident every step of the way. Here is an overview of the process from consultation to recovery.
Consultation
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation where we review your medical history, discuss your dental treatment plan, and answer all your questions. We will determine the best anesthesia approach tailored to your specific needs.
Pre-Procedure Preparation
Before your appointment, you will receive clear instructions on fasting guidelines, medication adjustments, and what to wear. A responsible adult must be available to drive you home after your procedure.
Day of Treatment
On the day of your procedure, our team will review your vitals, start your IV if needed, and ensure you are comfortable before beginning sedation. You will be continuously monitored throughout the entire procedure by a dedicated anesthesia provider.
Recovery & Aftercare
After your procedure, you will recover in a monitored setting until you are ready to go home. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions and follow up to ensure your recovery is smooth and comfortable.
