Is sedation dentistry safe?
Yes — when administered by a trained dental professional, sedation dentistry is very safe. All sedation patients are monitored throughout the procedure with pulse oximetry and blood pressure monitoring. Our team reviews your medical history and current medications before recommending any sedation option. We follow all ADA and Virginia Board of Dentistry guidelines.
