Is it true that you’re likely to say anything during sedation dentistry?

I heard that people will say literally anything thats on their minds when theyre drugged up before and maybe after they do the work. People will casually talk about secrets like the affair theyre having, or the drugs they take etc etc. Is there any truth to that?

Mostly rumor. You will be out of it and not saying very much if anything at all. Perhaps you are thinking of sodium pentothal (truth serum) that was used to question people. This also at one time was used as a general anesthetic but is rarely if ever used anymore.

I am looking into sedation dentistry. Does anyone else have experience with this?

I need four cavities filled, a wisdom tooth pulled, and three more cut out. There is a dentist in town who will sedate me for all of the above procedures for a fee. Has anyone else had any experiences with this? If so were they good or bad?

Negative opinions aren’t needed, just facts please.

Yes this does work for anxiou patients

Can someone tell me exactly what Sedation Dentistry is?

Is one injected, given a pill or do they put a mask on the face. I have Diabets2 and need to know, before I go.I need some heavy lower work done.

Sedation dentistry is usually dentistry done while the patient is using nitrous oxide. Nitrous is what is given by a mask on the face and will typically relax a patient. It is usually given in conjunction with Local anesthesia which is when you have an injection to be "numb"

This is from the ADA website-
What is sedation and general anesthesia?

Anti-anxiety agents, such as nitrous oxide, or sedatives may help you relax during dental visits and often may be used along with local anesthetics. Dentists also can use these agents to induce "minimal or moderate sedation," in which the patient achieves a relaxed state during treatment but can respond to speech or touch. Sedatives can be administered before, during or after dental procedures by mouth, inhalation or injection.

More complex treatments may require drugs that can induce "deep sedation," causing a loss of feeling and reducing consciousness in order to relieve both pain and anxiety. On occasion, patients undergo "general anesthesia," in which drugs cause a temporary loss of consciousness. Deep sedation and general anesthesia may be recommended in certain procedures for children or others who have severe anxiety or who have difficulty controlling their movements.

The ADA provides guidelines to help dentists administer pain controllers in the safest manner possible. Dentists use the pain and anxiety control techniques mentioned above to treat tens of millions of patients safely every year. Even so, taking any medication involves a certain amount of risk. That’s why the ADA urges you to take an active role in your oral health care. This includes knowing your health status and telling your dentist about any illnesses or health conditions, whether you are taking any medications (prescription or non-prescription), and whether you’ve ever had any problems such as allergic reactions to any medications. It also includes understanding the risks and benefits involved in dental treatment, so that you and your dentist can make the best decisions about the treatment that is right for you.

Understanding the range of choices that are available to relieve anxiety and discomfort makes you a well-informed dental consumer. If you have questions or concerns about your oral health care, don’t hesitate to talk to your dentist. If you still have concerns, consider getting a second opinion. Working together, you and your dentist can choose the appropriate steps to make your dental visit as safe and comfortable as possible, and to help you keep a healthy smile

What is the cost of sedation dentistry?

My dentist is trying to charge me $800 for a few hours of oral sedation. Is this reasonable or is he ripping me off.
Let me clarify that the entire bill is 4000 dollars, 800 is just for the sedation. Thank you.

Very reasonable as he will be present at all times. His time is worth at least that much.
