What a sedation dentist does

A sedation dentist holds a California permit to give medication that relaxes you during treatment, from a single calming pill to general anesthesia. This list comes from state permit records, not from advertising.

Treatments

  • Oral conscious sedation for adults
  • Moderate sedation, often given through a vein
  • Deep sedation and general anesthesia
  • Minimal sedation for children under 13

Training and credentials

Sedation is not a specialty. It is a permit the Dental Board of California issues on top of a dental license, after extra training and, for some permits, an office inspection. Every dentist listed here holds at least one current sedation or anesthesia permit.

When to see a sedation dentist instead of a general dentist

Every dentist can numb the area with local anesthetic. Look for a permit holder if dental anxiety keeps you from treatment, you need long or complex work in one visit, or you cannot be treated comfortably while fully awake.

Which sedation permits does California issue?

Four permits cover sedation in a dental office: the oral conscious sedation certificate for adults, the moderate sedation permit, the general anesthesia permit and the pediatric minimal sedation permit. Each profile names the permits a dentist holds.

Does every sedation dentist treat children?

No. Sedating a patient under 13 needs a pediatric minimal sedation permit, or a pediatric endorsement on a moderate sedation or general anesthesia permit. Ask the office before you book.
