Intravenous Sedation
It can be a daunting thing to come to the dentist, particularly if we need to complete complex treatment for you. At Beale and Cullen, we have several options of conscious sedation which can help to make your dental appointment much more comfortable.
Sedation is helpful for very anxious patients, as well as patients who choose to have multiple treatments completed in one long appointment. It is also used to help patients with a strong gag reflex, who otherwise find it difficult to have treatment.
The benefits of sedation can be feeling of relaxation, feeling floaty and sleepy, amnesia and feeling like time passes very fast during the appointment. Our staff are all highly trained in various sedation techniques and during your consultation we can discuss options with you to decide what type of sedation would suit you.
Your general health can impact suitability for sedation, so we will complete a full sedation health check at a consultation. Your safety is always our highest priority.
