Sedation Dentistry

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.

If you feel anxiety at the thought of a visit in the dental chair, talk to us about sedation dentistry.

Most forms of sedation used in dentistry allow you to remain conscious but relaxed, helping to ease the tension of undergoing dental procedures. 

 

 

Method of Sedation available at Camberwell Dental Centre

 

  • Oral sedation can be used for mild to moderate dental anxiety. You will be given a medication to be taken approximately an hour before your appointment. Oral sedation will leave you feeling very relaxed, and you may not even remember all of the procedures. You will need to be accompanied to your appointment by a friend or family member as oral sedation can take several hours to wear off.

You will be monitored during your appointment to ensure that you are safe during the procedure.

Benefits of Sedation

Sedation dentistry offers several benefits:

  • It allows you to complete dental work in fewer visits.
  • It helps alleviate anxiety and leaves you relaxed after your procedure.
  • It can keep you from remembering the sounds and smells often associated with dental anxiety.
