It involves giving you a sedative medicine through a vein in your arm or hand. Dental sedation makes you feel deeply relaxed. You will be able to talk and cooperate with your dental team, but most people cannot remember much about their treatment.
Londent is proud to offer treatment under Conscious Sedation. Our qualified sedation dentist, Dr Sian Li, works with even the most phobic patients to treat their dental needs in an efficient and calming environment.
If you’ve been contemplating dental care due to anxiety, we can incorporate Dental Sedation into your personalised treatment plan.
For those seeking a heightened level of relaxation, our practice specializes in advanced sedation techniques.
Treatment Options:
Risks:
In considering the risks associated with intravenous, intranasal, and oral sedation at Londent, there is a potential for slowed breathing, meticulously addressed through vigilant monitoring and immediate access to oxygen if required. While some bruising may occur after injection, it typically resolves within a few days. Although an allergic reaction to the sedation drug is an extremely rare risk, thorough disclosure of medical history, including medication, snoring patterns, and past sedation experiences, is crucial.
Alternatives:
Local anaesthetic or general anaesthetic serve as alternatives. The former involves a pain-free but fully conscious experience and the latter inducing temporary unconsciousness, typically reserved for those unable to cooperate due to disabilities or extensive dental work.
Consent:
The process emphasizes patient involvement, requiring a signed consent form to affirm understanding and agreement with the chosen treatment.
We tailor our approach to suit your comfort level and the nature of the procedure. Your safety and peace of mind are our top priorities and as such please don’t hesitate to contact us to find out more about this service.
