Find the Sedation Option That's Right for You

Complex procedures like dental implants become much easier with our gentle sedation options. You can complete multiple treatments in a single visit while feeling completely relaxed. Sedation also allows Dr. Kaeley to work more efficiently, which means less time in the dental chair for you.

Your sedation options include:

  • Oral Sedation - This safe, effective medication reduces anxiety while you remain conscious and responsive to Dr. Kaeley. You take a prescribed pill before your appointment and arrive at our office deeply relaxed. You may drift in and out of sleep during your procedure.
  • IV Sedation - IV sedation offers our deepest level of relaxation. It's delivered into your bloodstream through a small IV. You'll quickly drift into a peaceful sleep-like state yet remain conscious throughout your procedure. Dr. Kaeley can adjust your sedation level at any time, ensuring your complete comfort.

With sedation, you can comfortably receive the care you need. You'll feel far more confident pursuing treatments for better oral health and function. For both sedation options, you will need to arrange for a ride home. Both have lingering effects that can last for several hours.

Call 925-966-1686 for sedation options in San Ramon. You can also request an appointment online.

I had a very pleasant, professional and thorough initial consultation. A much better experience compared to another initial exam consultation I had at another San Ramon periodontist. I was presented with the LANAP option (the other office never mentioned it, probably because they don't have the equipment).

Best in the Bay Area

I am now 3 months after the surgery and amazed by the results!! My gums are not sore/swollen at all & do not bleed anymore! I had consulted and done treatment last year for an entire year with another dentist and they were unable to repair my gums. I have only heartfelt thanks for Dr. Kaeley...

I am now 3 months after the surgery and amazed by the results!! My gums are not sore/swollen at all & do not bleed anymore! I had consulted and done treatment last year for an entire year with another dentist and they were unable to repair my gums. I have only heartfelt thanks for Dr. Kaeley for helping me repair my gums. Dr. Kaeley will check my pockets next year and I could require another round of LANAP depending on how deep the pockets are. Dr, Kaeley is very knowledgeable & experienced. I don't think there is another gum specialist here in the Bay area like her.

Exceptional Periodontist

Dr. Kaeley is on exceptional Periodontist. The staff is very polite and they make you feel very comfortable. I would recommend Progressive Periodontics to friends and family members. This is the office to be seen if you want or need a Periodontics procedure or treatment.

ABSOLUTELY the best

I am beyond happy to have found this place. They're so caring, gentle and all the staffs are so friendly. I used to be so deathly afraid to get a basic cleaning for my teeth because no matter how much I tell them to be gentle at other places (due to sensitive teeth), they don't seem to listen...

I am beyond happy to have found this place. They're so caring, gentle and all the staffs are so friendly. I used to be so deathly afraid to get a basic cleaning for my teeth because no matter how much I tell them to be gentle at other places (due to sensitive teeth), they don't seem to listen but when I started going here for my gum treatments, I always look forward to going now. Please go here if you need periodontics treatment because they are ABSOLUTELY the best.

Tracy was great! Gentle. She also provided great suggestions on how to maintain my oral health. I greatly appreciated her suggestions as I know my oral health impacts my general, overall physical health.

That made me to calm down little bit :). She explained everything what she was doing and she even called me in evening to ask how I am doing and if everything is ok. I recommend Dr. Kaeley to everyone.

Common Questions About Sedation Options

What types of sedation options are available?

Dr. Kaeley offers two primary sedation options: oral sedation and IV sedation. Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed medication before your appointment, which helps you feel relaxed while remaining conscious. IV sedation delivers medication directly into your bloodstream, allowing for a deeper state of relaxation. Both options are designed to ensure your comfort during procedures and can be tailored to your needs.

How do I know which sedation option is right for me?

Choosing the right sedation option depends on your individual anxiety levels and the complexity of the procedure. During your consultation, Dr. Kaeley will discuss your concerns and preferences to help determine the best choice for you. She will consider factors such as your medical history and the type of treatment you require. Ultimately, the goal is to ensure you feel safe and comfortable throughout your experience.

Will I be awake during the procedure with sedation?

With oral sedation, you will remain conscious and able to respond to Dr. Kaeley, although you may feel drowsy or drift in and out of sleep. IV sedation allows for a deeper level of relaxation, where you may feel like you're in a sleep-like state but can still respond if necessary. Dr. Kaeley will monitor your sedation levels closely and can adjust them as needed to ensure your comfort. Rest assured, you will not feel pain during the procedure.
