San Diego sedation dentists Dr. Williams
and Dr. Gray have received extensive special
training, and are among the leaders in the
US, using this technique. Patients come
from all over the western United States
to be treated using this comfortable, safe
and effective system.
What is It?
The medicine is called Triazolam. It is
a small blue pill taken about 1 hour before
your visit. This tablet has been prescribed
over 10 million times per year, by physicians,
for patient's use at home. The drug has
almost no side effects or interaction with
other medicines you may currently be taking.
What are the Benefits?
It allows you to comfortably undergo everything
from a simple cleaning to extensive concerns.
One of the additional benefits is that the
medicine has an amnesia quality which for
most patients, tends to prevent almost any
memory of the visit.
- It enhances effectiveness of anesthetic.
- It decreases gagging.
- It decreases joint and muscle soreness.
- Allows more treatment to be provided
in a shorter time, which could decrease
total number of visits.
How Long Does It Last?
For most patients, the effects last between
2-4 hours, so we require you to have someone
drive you home.
Am I Really Asleep?
Most patients do tend to fall asleep, however
you can still respond to verbal commands.
Even the most apprehensive patients have
been ecstatic with the results.
Safety
We constantly monitor each patient with
a computerized pulse oximeter, which measures
heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen saturation.
We also have a reversal agent on hand that
reverses the effect of the medicine in less
than 30 seconds. We have treated over 4000
patients safely and comfortably. We are
caring for patients everyday using this
safe comfortable and relaxing method. It's
a blessing for our patients.
