Sedation Dentistry in Rome, NY
IV and oral sedation for adults, so you can finally get the care you've been putting off.
Care that feels calm from start to finish
If the thought of sitting in a dental chair makes your stomach turn, you're far from alone — and that fear is often the reason a small problem grows into a big one. Sedation gives you a way through it: you stay relaxed and comfortable while Dr. Candido takes care of your treatment, so the appointment you've been dreading feels far more manageable.
We offer two kinds of sedation for adults 18 and older. Oral conscious sedation is a pill you take before your visit to help you relax, and IV sedation, which Dr. Candido gives during your visit, brings a deeper level of calm for longer or more involved treatment.
Who Can Have Sedation?
Sedation is for adults 18 and older, and every patient is subject to Dr. Candido's approval based on their health history and the treatment they need. We don't offer sedation for patients under 18.
Which Treatments Can I Have With Sedation?
Sedation is a good fit for longer visits like All-on-X full mouth implants, snap-on dentures, wisdom teeth removal, and other implant treatment. Dr. Candido will talk through whether it makes sense for your care at your consultation.
How Do I Get Ready For A Sedation Visit?
We'll give you clear instructions ahead of time so you know exactly what to expect, and you'll need someone to drive you home afterward.
