If you experience fear or anxiety when going to the dentist, you are not alone. Visiting the dentist does not have to be a traumatic experience. Far too many people let this fear prevent them from receiving proper dental care. IV sedation is a procedure that allows a patient to be relaxed and pain-free during treatment. Dr. Wibby pioneered the use of IV sedation for all dental procedures and has treated thousands of patients who have conquered their fear of dentistry.

IV sedation is medication administered intravenously in your arm. I control the dosage as necessary throughout the procedure. The patient typically has little or no memory of the event. Oral sedation is a pill which may or may not work depending on the dosage calculated or the time for absorption.
