Dental IV Sedation at Ted M Pinney DDS.

  • Deep, comfortable relaxation during your visit
  • A real option if dental anxiety has held you back
  • Well-suited for longer or more complex procedures
  • Monitored throughout by trained clinicians

Gentle, judgment-free care β€” we'll explain everything in plain language.

If dental anxiety has been keeping you away from the care you need, or you have a longer procedure coming up that you'd rather not be fully aware of, IV sedation can make a real difference. Here at Ted M Pinney DDS in Jacksonville, our trained clinician administers and monitors sedation from start to finish, so you stay calm, comfortable, and safe while we take care of everything. You're welcome here, no matter how long it's been or how nervous you feel.

What to expect.

  1. Talk through your health and hopes

    We take time to review your medical history and listen to what you're worried about, so we can build a sedation plan that fits you safely.

  2. Get ready for your appointment

    We'll walk you through simple instructions to follow beforehand and help you arrange a trusted person to drive you home after.

  3. Rest easy while we work

    Sedation is given and watched closely the whole time we're treating you β€” most folks have very little memory of the procedure at all.

  4. Leave feeling steady and cared for

    Before you head out, we make sure you're comfortable and stable, and we send you home with clear, easy-to-follow guidance for the rest of your day.

Have questions about Dental IV Sedation?

Will I be fully unconscious with IV sedation?
Not quite β€” you'll be deeply relaxed and may drift, but it's different from general anesthesia. Many patients simply have little to no memory of the visit by the time it's done.
Is IV sedation safe to use?
When administered and monitored by trained clinicians, it's very safe. We review your health history carefully beforehand and keep a close eye on you throughout your entire appointment.
How do I know if IV sedation is right for me?
It tends to be a great fit for people with strong dental anxiety, a sensitive gag reflex, or a longer procedure on the schedule. We'll talk it through with you and help you decide together.
Do I really need someone to drive me home?
Yes β€” the effects of sedation stay with you for a while after your appointment, so you'll need a trusted person to drive you home and keep you company for the rest of the day.
What will IV sedation cost me?
The cost depends on your individual treatment plan, so we never quote a one-size-fits-all number. We put together a clear, itemized estimate for you to review before any treatment begins β€” no surprises. If cost is a concern, just tell us and we'll talk through every option available to you.

It’s a pleasure to care for you.

Book your visit and we’ll take it from there β€” gently, and at your pace.
