What Is Comprehensive Sedation and Oral Health Care?

Comprehensive sedation and oral health care combines state‑of‑the‑art dental treatments with safe, medically supervised sedation, ensuring that patients remain relaxed and comfortable throughout their visit.

At Palmer Dentistry, this approach is ideal for patients who:

Experience moderate to severe dental anxiety
Have difficulty sitting through longer procedures
Require complex or multiple treatments
Have a strong gag reflex
Avoid dental care due to fear or past experiences

Sedation allows Dr. Palmer and his experienced team to focus on restoring your oral health efficiently—often completing multiple procedures in fewer visits—while you remain at ease.

IV Sedation Dentistry: Comfort Without Compromise

One of the most effective sedation options offered at Palmer Dentistry is IV sedation. This method allows medication to be administered directly into the bloodstream, providing fast‑acting, adjustable relaxation.

Benefits of IV sedation include:

Deep relaxation while remaining responsive
Reduced awareness of time and sensation
Little to no memory of the procedure
Ideal for longer or more complex dental treatments

Patients often describe IV sedation dentistry as “sleeping through the appointment” and waking up with their dental work completed. This makes it especially valuable for procedures such as full mouth reconstruction, dental implants, and extractions.
