As a dental practice that takes great pride in helping patients overcome their dental phobia, we offer IV (intravenous) sedation, which can put you in a relaxed state before a procedure.
This truly game-changing innovation has helped a huge number of our patients to overcome their nerves.
– Put you in a relaxed state before any type of dental treatment.
– Make lengthy procedures more comfortable.
– Allow you to stay conscious and relaxed but able to communicate with the dentist.
– Change your entire perception of being in the dentist’s chair.
In many ways, IV sedation is the miracle that nervous patients have been waiting for. When administered, the intravenous sedative induces a relaxed state and significantly inhibits your sensitivity to pain.
It can also reduce your gag reflex, which is great news for patients who struggle when the dentist is working away in your mouth. Your sedation is supervised by a trained sedation dentist, who will keep a close eye on you whilst your treatment is carried out. They will monitor your vitals and ensure you are comfortable throughout.
How is the IV sedation administered?
A very small needle is placed on the back of the hand. The sedative is administered through this.
How long does it take for it to take effect?
It should take a mere few seconds for you to start feeling the relaxing effects of IV sedation.
