Imagine resting soundly through your entire dental procedure and waking up refreshed, with little or no memory of the visit. It works, and has worked for countless patients who used to be apprehensive of going to the dentist.

Facts about Sedation Dentistry
  • It is absolutely safe. Dr. Keller will give you a small pill to take one hour prior to treatment. If you choose, he can give more pills once you get to the office to get the desired sedation effect. Dr. Keller has found after several years of sedation dentistry, that I.V. Sedation is easier and just as safe as oral sedation.
  • Not all dentists can provide I.V. sedation. The Idaho State Board of Dentistry only issues permits to trained dentists who have met the requirements of special training in advanced cardiac life support, EKG, pulse oximeter and blood pressure monitoring.
  • Most patients report having little or no memory of the experience, including sounds or smells.
  • Complex or time-consuming treatments that often require many appointments to complete can be done in as little as one with sedation dentistry at Nampa Smiles by reducing the fatigue of extended dental treatments.
  • People who have difficulty getting numb will find that sedation dentistry eliminates this problem.
