Oral Conscious Sedation, or OCS, provides a stronger level of sedation than Nitrous Oxide. Many patients prefer it for the deeper relaxation it provides. Though you are still able to stand, walk, or answer questions, you remain in a calm and drowsy state throughout your treatment.
With OCS, many patients find they have little memory of the procedure afterward. For anyone who feels anxious in the dental chair, or who wants to get more care done in a single visit, that can be a real gift.
Because the effects can take time to wear off, you’ll need someone to drive you to and from your appointment. Your sedation is closely monitored by experienced dental professionals the entire time, so you can simply relax while we take care of the rest. To learn more, contact Texoma Dentures & Implants.
