What is involved in sedation dentistry? The decision to use sedation is best arrived at through a conversation between dentist and patient. Depending on the procedure, the patient's anxiety levels and other health factors (such as age or pre-existing conditions), the dentist will decide what kind of sedation and how much to use. During sedation dentistry, a patient can go through a dental procedure without being fully aware of what is happening; after the procedure, he or she may not even remember it.
