Who Sedation & Anesthesia Is For
Every procedure includes anesthesia to keep you comfortable, and some patients benefit from a deeper level of sedation. Your surgeon will help you decide what is right for you. Sedation is often a good fit when:
- ●Dental anxiety, fear, or a past difficult experience makes treatment stressful
- ●You are having a longer or more complex surgical procedure
- ●Multiple extractions or several procedures are planned in one visit
- ●You have a strong gag reflex that makes dental work uncomfortable
- ●Local anesthetic alone has been difficult to achieve in the past
- ●A patient has special needs that make relaxed treatment difficult
Anesthesia Options We Offer in Mitchell
From simple numbing to deeper sedation, we tailor your comfort to the procedure and your needs.
Local Anesthesia
A targeted numbing medication blocks pain in the treatment area while you stay fully awake. It is used in nearly every procedure and is often all that simpler treatments require.
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
Inhaled through a small mask, nitrous oxide eases anxiety and helps you feel relaxed during treatment. Its effects wear off quickly, so in many cases you can drive yourself home.
Oral Sedation
A prescribed medication taken before your appointment leaves you calm and drowsy while still able to respond. You will need a trusted adult to drive you to and from the office.
IV & General Anesthesia
For complex procedures or significant anxiety, IV sedation and general anesthesia provide a deeper level of relaxation. Most patients have little or no memory of the procedure afterward.
Don’t Let Anxiety Delay the Care You Need
Board-certified oral surgeons — Free consultation, no commitment.
What to Expect: Sedation & Anesthesia at Our Mitchell Office
A clear, three-step process from your first appointment to a smooth recovery.
Pre-Op Evaluation
Your surgeon reviews your medical history, current medications, and the procedure ahead, then recommends the level of sedation that is safest and most comfortable for you.
Comfortable Procedure
On the day of treatment we follow any fasting instructions you were given and begin your chosen anesthesia. Our team stays with you and keeps you comfortable throughout.
Recovery & Ride Home
After deeper sedation you will rest until you are ready to leave. A responsible adult drives you home, and you take it easy for the remainder of the day.
Recovering After Sedation
Arrange a ride home
If you have oral, IV, or general anesthesia, a responsible adult must drive you home and stay with you afterward, since the effects take time to fully wear off.
Rest for the day
Plan to relax at home for the rest of the day. Avoid strenuous activity and let your body recover from both the sedation and the procedure.
Don’t drive or operate machinery
Wait until the next day, or as directed by your surgeon, before driving or using equipment that requires full focus and coordination.
Hold off on big decisions
Avoid signing documents or making important decisions for the rest of the day, as sedation can briefly affect your judgment and memory.
Ease back into eating
Start with water and light, easy-to-digest foods, then return to your normal diet as you feel ready and as your procedure allows.
Follow your medication guidance
Take any prescribed or recommended medications exactly as directed, and ask before resuming your regular medications after sedation.
You’ll receive complete pre-op and recovery instructions tailored to your anesthesia and procedure before you leave our office. If you have any questions about your sedation plan, or you feel unwell as the medication wears off, call us right away.
