This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether virtual reality glasses can improve the experience of patients undergoing oral surgery with intravenous sedation. Half of the participants will wear VR glasses that play relaxing videos and audio during the procedure, while the other half will wear regular protective glasses. The researchers want to see if the VR glasses help patients feel calmer and need less sedation medication.
Many people feel anxious during oral surgery, even when sedated, and this anxiety can sometimes require doctors to use higher doses of sedation. This study is exploring whether VR glasses with calming content could help reduce anxiety and allow doctors to use gentler sedation, making the experience safer and more comfortable for patients.

If you enroll, you will be randomly assigned to wear either VR glasses with relaxing content or regular protective glasses during your oral surgery procedure. You'll wear the glasses during the placement of your IV line, the sedation process, and throughout your surgery. The researchers will monitor how much sedation you need and track your comfort level and experience throughout the procedure.
