Fasting
No food or drink inside the window we give you — including gum and coffee.
Driver
A licensed adult must drive you home after any sedation. No rideshare alone.
What to wear
Short sleeves, flat shoes, no nail polish, and leave jewelry at home.
Time to allow
Plan on the full day for sedation visits, even when the surgery is short.

Still unsure about something? Our full FAQ covers sedation, safety, and recovery in more detail.
As soon as your appointment is scheduled. They're online and take a few minutes — having them done before you arrive keeps your visit on time.
Your driver is welcome to wait. For sedation appointments we ask that you not bring children you'd be responsible for, since you won't be able to drive or supervise afterward.
Call 605.878.4746 as soon as you know. Sedation blocks are long, so early notice lets us give the time to someone who's waiting.
We review your estimate and what your insurance covers before treatment day, and the balance is due at the visit. Financing details are on our financial policy page.
