under local anesthesia only your ears are numb. with iv sedation you are sleepy but not completely asleep. you can still hear and see during the sedation process. you are only sleepy for the first 5 to 10 minutes when the local anesthesia is being injected.

So you are not sleepy during the whole procedure just for first 5 - 10 minutes?
