Sedation

What is sedation?

Sedation allows you to remain conscious but deeply relaxed during your dental treatment. You’ll feel calm and at ease, and often remember very little about the procedure afterwards.

It’s an ideal solution for patients who:

Feel nervous or anxious about dental visits

Have a strong gag reflex

Are having longer or more complex treatment
