What drug is used for IV sedation in dentistry?
In dentistry, medications like Midazolam or Propofol are commonly used for IV sedation to help patients relax. Midazolam is often preferred due to its amnesic effects, which help patients forget the procedure, while Propofol provides a deeper sedation level and allows for a quick recovery. These drugs are administered intravenously, allowing the dentist to adjust the sedation level as needed during the procedure. Both medications are safe and effective when used by trained professionals. Your sedation dentist will choose the most appropriate medication based on your medical history and the complexity of the procedure.
