It’s not just dental phobics who are interested in conscious sedation. The very first patient we used it on wasn’t afraid at all, but she had a severe gag reflex, making normal dentistry miserable for her. With the sedation, she was able to be completely relaxed, even relaxing her involuntary gagging. We were able to get terrific impressions which gave her the best end result. She was happy, and our day went smoothly.
