Dr. Aunon knows that the more relaxed a patient is during their dental
visit, the more comfortable and successful their dental experience will be.
Until recently, doctors have been able to do little to relax patients who
suffer anxiety at just the thought of a visit to the dentist.
Intravenous sedation is the answer for many patients. Dr. Aunon uses board certified anesthesiologistis trained in conscious IV sedation to administer relaxant drugs intravenously to the patient, using specific protocols. Patient will be monitored for blood pressure, pulse, oxygen saturation and respiratory rates continuously to ensure that the patient is completely comfortable and reacting normally throughout the procedure.
While sedated, patients are able to respond to verbal commands but they are
so relaxed that they do not experience any pain, discomfort or anxiety. In
fact, patients usually report not remembering much of the procedure and
actually believe they were asleep throughout their appointment.
