Sedation Dentistry
What is Oral Conscious Sedation?
Dr. Davenport has been specially trained and certified, and is licensed by the State of Georgia to perform conscious sedation for the comfort of his patients. In fact, many of his patients who are undergoing surgical procedures choose oral sedation for their personal comfort. If you are interested in this option, please discuss it with Dr. Davenport at the time of scheduling, so that the appropriate prescriptions may be provided. The medicines produce a calming and relaxing response, and have a mild amnesiac effect. All patients who use sedation must have a caregiver drive them to and from the appointment, and must be in satisfactory health before any drugs are administered.
