Oral Conscious Sedation (OCS) offers a deeper level of relaxation based on the dose prescribed and the sedative delivery throughout a procedure. These safe prescription medications are generally taken before and during your appointment, providing an effective level of relaxation. Depending on your services, Dr. Rezaei will customize the sedatives and timing to provide the best experience.
