Preparing for Sedation![]() Understand the ProcessSedation dentistry at Serenity Sleep Dentistry involves complete anesthesia monitored by a licensed anesthesiologist. Unlike twilight sedation, which leaves you partially conscious, our approach ensures you are entirely asleep with no memory of the procedure. This method prioritizes your comfort and safety, allowing you to wake up with your dental work already completed. Knowing what to expect can ease any concerns and help you feel confident about your upcoming appointment. Follow Pre-Procedure InstructionsBefore your appointment, Dr. Thomas E. Clark will provide detailed instructions to prepare for sedation dentistry. Common guidelines include:
