Why Choose IV Sedation for Wisdom Teeth?
Experience the most comfortable, anxiety-free wisdom teeth removal available
Zero Memory
IV sedation puts you in a comfortable twilight state. You’ll have no memory of the procedure and wake up when it’s all done.
Continuous Monitoring
Dr. Williams monitors your heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and breathing throughout the entire procedure.
Faster Procedure
With you completely relaxed, Dr. Sharaf works more efficiently — often completing all four wisdom teeth in under an hour.
Perfect for Anxiety
Ideal for patients with dental anxiety, sensitive gag reflex, or difficulty getting numb with local anesthesia alone.
Double the Safety
Two doctors means twice the attention. One operates while the other focuses entirely on your vital signs and comfort.
No Hospital Needed
Hospital-level anesthesia care without the hospital. No surgery center fees — everything in our Leander office.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is IV sedation safe for wisdom teeth removal?
Yes, IV sedation is extremely safe when administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist like Dr. Williams. Our two-doctor approach provides an extra layer of safety — Dr. Williams monitors your vital signs continuously while Dr. Sharaf performs the extraction. We use hospital-grade monitoring equipment and follow the same protocols used in hospital operating rooms.
Will I feel any pain during the procedure?
No. With IV sedation, you’ll be in a deeply relaxed state and won’t feel any pain during the procedure. You’ll also have no memory of the extraction afterward. Most patients describe the experience as “going to sleep” and waking up with the procedure completed. You may experience some soreness after the sedation wears off, which is manageable with prescribed pain medication.
How long does recovery take after wisdom teeth removal?
Most patients can return to normal activities within 2-3 days. The first 24 hours require rest, and you should avoid strenuous activity for about a week. Swelling typically peaks at 48-72 hours and then subsides. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions and are available for any questions during your recovery.
Do I need someone to drive me home?
Yes. Because IV sedation causes drowsiness and impairs coordination, you must have a responsible adult drive you home and stay with you for several hours after the procedure. You cannot drive, operate machinery, or make important decisions for 24 hours following IV sedation.
How much does IV sedation wisdom teeth removal cost?
The cost depends on whether you need all four wisdom teeth removed and the complexity of your case. We accept most PPO dental insurance plans and will help maximize your benefits. For out-of-pocket costs, we offer flexible financing options through Cherry, with many patients qualifying for 0% interest plans.
