Note!!
An advertising
flyer from the Dental Organization for
Conscious Sedation (DOCS) incorrectly stated that use of any (emphasis in the original) oral sedative used
in-office
requires a sedation permit. The NC Dental Board's policy
is
that "administration of a single dose of a minor psychosedative,
possibly in combination with nitrous oxide, to children or
adults prior to the commencement of treatment on the day of
the appointment..." is considered anxiolysis and DOES NOTrequire
a sedation permit (21NCAC 16Q.0101(3)).
A dentist whose use of a
minor psychosedative complies with this
definition of anxiolysis need not attend the DOCS course.
