What is Oral Conscious Sedation?
What is Oral Conscious Sedation? Oral conscious sedation involves taking a prescribed medication before your dental procedure. This simple step can significantly ease your anxiety and discomfort, making your visit more pleasant and stress-free.
Unlike general anesthesia, oral conscious sedation keeps you awake and responsive, yet deeply relaxed and at ease.

Who Can Benefit from Oral Conscious Sedation?
Oral conscious sedation is an excellent option for various patients, including those who:
- Experience dental anxiety or fear
- Have difficulty getting numb with local anesthesia
- Require extensive dental treatment
- Have a strong gag reflex
By choosing oral conscious sedation, you can relax and be comfortable throughout your visit, making it easier to receive the dental care you need.
How Oral Conscious Sedation Works
Dr. Kurz will prescribe an oral sedative that you take about an hour before your appointment. By the time you arrive at our office, you will feel calm and relaxed. During the procedure, you will be awake but in a heightened state of relaxation. You may not remember much of the procedure afterward, which can be beneficial for those with dental anxiety.
To ensure your safety, you will need to have someone drive you to and from our office. Additionally, a local anesthetic will be applied to the treatment area to ensure you feel no pain.
Say Goodbye to Dental Anxiety
1. Ease of Use
Taking an oral sedative is as easy as swallowing an aspirin. There are no needles or complex preparations involved.
2. Increased Comfort
You will feel relaxed and calm throughout your procedure. Many patients report little to no memory of the treatment, making the entire experience more pleasant.
3. Safety
Oral conscious sedation is a safe option for most patients. You remain awake and can communicate with Dr. Kurz during your procedure.
4. Efficiency
Long or complex procedures seem to go by faster, allowing Dr. Kurz to complete extensive dental work in a single visit.
