What can I expect while being sedated?

A companion must drive you to and from your appointment. The night before you will take a pill to begin the relaxation. About an hour before treatment begins you will take another pill. We will escort you to a comfortable chair and begin to monitor you. When you are comfortably sedated, Dr. Magid will begin your dental care.

When your treatment is finished, your companion will drive you home. Most likely, you will not remember your appointment.
