IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PATIENTS RECEIVING NITROUS OXIDE AND/OR SEDATION

When treatment is performed with nitrous oxide and/or sedation you must be accompanied to the office by someone who will be available to leave the office with you when treatment is completed and care for you the remainder of the day. During the twenty four hour period following sedation avoid all activities that require a clear mind such as operating a motor vehicle or making important decisions.

Modifications in treatment and fees may be necessary due to unforeseen factors encountered at the time of treatment. It will not be possible to discuss this with you while you are sedated. Treatment will be performed as deemed appropriate given the circumstances. Fees and insurance coverage will be different than initially discussed. If you prefer that unplanned treatment be deferred please let us know prior to sedation being administered. Deferred treatment will require duplication of the time, fees, and risks associated with sedation.
