Good candidates for IV sedation may include:
- Patients with a strong gag reflex or aversion to dental instruments in the mouth

How IV Sedation in Maple Ridge, BC, Works
First, the dentist will ensure IV sedation is suitable for you by taking a health history and collecting a list of current medications. We’ll then talk to you about what to expect if you’re a candidate for dental sedation.
It’s important to remember that you’ll need a ride home from our dental office, and you should not make any important decisions for the remainder of the day. IV sedation effects can linger!
