Having a back tooth pulled this week with iv sedation. what drugs do oral surgeons usually use for iv sedation? just in general. i know it depends.

Too many variables: Perhaps you would be best served to be specific about your concerns. This question could be so long as to require a book length answer.

"Typical" meds used: Alone or in combination can include a benzodiazepine, an opioid, dissociative anesthetics, barbiturates, hypnotic/amsnestic. Some examples are versed, nubain, propofol, brevital, ketamine, fentanyl. I hope that helps give you an idea of some common combinations. Your procedure should be very comfortable and safe. Follow all pre-op and post-op instructions.
