Intravenous Sedation (IV) is a method for administering sedative medications directly into the bloodstream.  This allows for the sedative medications to be titrated in a safe and effective manner for each individual patient's needs.  Unlike oral sedation the effects of the medication are achieved quickly and predictably and can be better adapted to the tolerance of each patient's specific needs.

Sedation in Dentistry has a long history of safe and effective use.  Modern technology allows us to more carefully monitor patients during procedures and combined with newer drugs and techniques we can achieve even better safety and comfort for our patients who have anxiety about receiving Dental Care.




​I wrote the article below which appeared in the March 16, 1986 edition of the Mobile Press Register. It described methods for controlling Dental pain and anxiety that we still use today.
