Oral Sedation for Children in Cibolo, TX

Oral sedation is suitable for a variety of dental procedures, including:

• Cleanings and Exams: Ensures a comfortable experience during routine dental visits.
• Dental Fillings: Helps children stay calm while cavities are treated.
• Tooth Extractions: Reduces anxiety and discomfort during tooth removal.
• Crowns: Eases the process of placing dental crowns.

Before the Procedure

• Pre-Sedation Instructions: Our team will provide you with detailed instructions on how to prepare your child for oral sedation, including any dietary restrictions.
• Discussion: We will discuss your child’s medical history and any concerns you may have to ensure oral sedation is a suitable option.

During the Procedure

• Administration: The oral sedative will be given to your child before the dental procedure begins. The medication typically takes effect within 20 to 30 minutes.
• Relaxation: Your child will remain awake but in a deeply relaxed state, allowing us to perform the necessary dental work with minimal stress.
• Monitoring: Throughout the procedure, our team will closely monitor your child’s vital signs to ensure their safety and comfort.

After the Procedure

• Recovery: The effects of oral sedation may last for a few hours after the procedure. Your child may feel drowsy and should rest at home for the remainder of the day.
• Post-Procedure Care: We will provide detailed post-procedure instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and address any questions you may have.
