Can I be put to sleep (IV) and get an extensive amount of dental work done all at one time?

There is no need to be embarrassed - we're dentists, this is what we're here for. Yes, IV sedation is certainly possible, just make sure your dentist is certified to administer this. You'll be okay!

Yes you can certainly have IV sedation for extensive dental work.  Just make sure that your dentist is either IV certified or has an anesthesiologist that comes into the office to do the sedations for him/her.  Some dentists will try to tell you that oral sedation is just as good as IV sedation.  They are, in fact, different and require different levels of certification by the state.  For smaller amounts of dental work, oral sedation or even Nitrous Oxide can be a nice option.  If you are needing extensive work and you want to be "out" for the procedure, IV is probably the way to go.
As for being embarrassed about your smile, that's what we dentists are here for.  We are here to help.    

Of course you can. you should contact a dentist who works with a dental anesthesiologist or can bring a regular MD anesthesiologist to office and administer IV sedation

Hello,
 I think that you should know all of your treatment options and the first step is to see a dentist in your area. Please know that we are here to help and that we wont judge you. To answer your question, there are dentists who are trained in IV sedation and can use that for your dental anxiety to complete all your treatment assuming you meet all the medical requirements..

It sounds like you are overwhelmed! Take a breath and make an appointment with a dentist for a thorough evaluation.  Speak to friends and family and get some recommendations of dentists in your dental insurance network. Your mouth did not get into this condition overnight and  will need to be restored but a comprehensive treatment plan that the dentist can provide will give you all your options.  Take the first step.  If you ignore your teeth they will go away (corny but true).  You can do it!!!!

Hi,
Typically it is safe for a healthy adult to be sedated for up to 3 hours without any major risks, assuming the correct monitoring equipment is in place. There are lots of variations to patient responses to sedation but assuming that your sedation proceeds as planned.. the amount of work that can be done will be limited only by the efficiency and expertise of the dentist. It's all in the planning!

Hope this helps

If you are healthy enough medically which appears to be yes of course you can be sedated. As for specifics of your case without an exam cannot provide you with any further feedback
