Oral Conscious Sedation

Here at Lehigh Valley Smiles, we take our patient’s comfort level very seriously, which is why we offer oral conscious sedation. This type of sedation does not cause patients to be completely unconscious, but takes off the edge, relieves anxiety, and helps them get through the procedure in the easiest way possible. Our patients like the feeling of relaxation and the lower cost of this type of sedation when compared to other forms of sedation.

Our patients realize the following benefits by choosing oral conscious sedation:

• They feel relaxed and at ease during procedures.
• They are more likely to get necessary dental treatments.
• It is less expensive than other types of sedation.
• Oral conscious sedation is safe and effective.
• Longer dental procedures go by more quickly.

With oral conscious sedation, we have found that our patients are less likely to put off essential dental procedures as a result of anxiety. They understand the dental treatment will go more smoothly and it makes them more willing to schedule prompt appointments.

If you struggle with dental anxiety, be sure to call our dentist Dr. Alan Dilsaver at 610-252-7414 to discuss the possibility of oral conscious sedation.
