Medical History / Candidacy Review

What it is: Dr. Vasquez reviews health conditions, medicines, supplements, allergies, airway concerns and past responses to sedation or anesthesia.

When considered: Every patient must be assessed before nitrous oxide or oral conscious sedation is selected.

What to expect: We begin with an examination and appropriate records, explain the findings, and tailor the sequence to the tooth, tissues, bite, health and goals.

Limits and next step: Suitability, timing and outcome depend on the clinical findings. Alternatives, maintenance and referral needs are reviewed before treatment.
