The goal of this study is to determine whether intravenous sedation would contribute to the stabilization of hemodynamics in adult patients during periodontal/implant surgery compared to receiving local anesthesia during periodontal/implant surgery
Monitoring is the global method of observation and data recording in relation to body organ and system function that afford constant information to ensure continuous evaluation of the patient's physical condition. The aim of this study is to determine whether intravenous sedation would contribute to the stabilization of hemodynamics in adult patients during dental surgery. Secondary, patient related outcome will be evaluated by a questionnaire to determine the patients' perception, acceptance and comfort during intravenous sedation after assessing the influence of patients' preoperative anxiety. 50 subjects who need implant/periodontal surgery at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry will be recruited for this study.
