No.

IV Sedation is usually administered pre-op to an anxious patient, or post-op for the same reasons. IV sedation is most frequently piggy-backed into an existing IV. The reason for this is, contrary to TV, finding a vein with a combative patient is difficult and dangerous. IV's are hooked up to trauma patients when necessary, but rarely for the sole reason of administering IV sedatives.
Doctors and dentists should always know what medication you are on, no matter what it's for.
It appears to be a common side affect, depending upon the drugs used in the IV. I just had the beginning part of a tooth implant procedure, under conscious sedation, and I have had the hiccups 8 times in two days. I am inclined to assume its from the medication.
Yes but novacaine and/or liquid cocaine will be used to numb the area.
Once sedation is halted and the objective is to wake the patient up, the side effects from weaning the patient off are:ConfusionInability to maintain own airway sufficientlyDrowsinessLow conscious leveland others.
