IV Sedation - Batavia | Blue Ash

This entire paperwork process takes and estimated 15 minutes and all stages must be completed prior to being scheduled for an appointment.

(section estimate: 2 minutes to complete)
BEFORE we take your time with more detailed paperwork, answer these few questions to ensure IV Sedation is a good fit for your needs/situation.

Validation Question 1 of 7: Dr. Moorehead does referred extractions only with IV conscious sedation and is limited to patients 13 years of age or older. We do this because it is safer and more pleasant for the patient as opposed to only local anesthetic (numbing).

I understand this statement and I still wish to continue... Yes No

Validation Question 2 of 7: Dr. Moorehead is a General Dentist experienced with extractions, but not an Oral Surgeon. We treat most conditions but we do refer out to Oral Surgeons for more complicated procedures. Dr. Moorehead will review your X-Ray to determine the complexity and will let you know if you need to be referred to an Oral Surgeon.

I understand this statement and I still wish to continue... Yes No

Validation Question 3 of 7: IV conscious sedation is not the same as being “put to sleep” or the same as general anesthesia. It is a twilight sedation with the effect of little to no memory of the procedure. There will still be injections with local anesthesia, but you usually won’t remember that part. IV conscious sedation often cannot help an uncooperative patient.

(If you need a further clarification of what to expect, find someone who has had a colonoscopy and ask them their experience because we use the same methods for sedation.)

I understand this statement and I still wish to continue... Yes No

The next verification deals with whether you will be using dental insurance.

Select if/what type of dental insurance you plan to use for your procedure(s)

Validation Question 4 of 7: Medicaid, as well as traditional insurances, typically do not cover IV conscious sedation except for some wisdom teeth procedures. We will prior authorize the procedure for you to determine the coverage. If the insurance does not authorize, the fee for the sedation service will be $210.21 (this is discounted from our normal fee of $796) which will need to be paid prior to the appointment being scheduled with us.

I understand this statement and I still wish to continue... Yes No

Validation Question 4 of 7: Dental insurance typically does not cover IV conscious sedation except for some wisdom teeth procedures. For those with insurance, we will prior authorize the procedure for you to determine the coverage. If the insurance does not authorize, the fee for the sedation service (only referencing the sedation portion) will be $796 which will need to be paid or included in a signed financial plan prior to the appointment being scheduled with us.

I understand this statement and I still wish to continue... Yes No

Validation Question 5 of 7: If you do not wish to have IV Sedation or do not wish to pay the fees for sedation (if insurance denies them), the good news is there are several other options for you other than Dr. Moorehead. If the procedure is relatively simple, Dr. Piner at Moorehead Family Dentistry in Lebanon will likely be able to treat you. If more complex, you can try another office (as of 1/8/2021) Dr. Josh Atkin at Dayton Dental Unlimited could help or UC Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.

I understand this statement and I still wish to continue... Yes No

Validation Question 6 of 7: I also realize that my procedure will not be scheduled until all office paperwork is completed AND the sedation fee is paid or the insurance approves the sedation procedure.

I understand this statement and I still wish to continue... Yes No

Validation Question 7 of 7: I realize that if I do not show up for my appointment or cancel within 24 hours, I will not have the opportunity to reschedule and will have to seek treatment elsewhere. Any prepayments for that appointment will be refunded.

I understand this statement and I still wish to continue... Yes No
