SEDATION
We understand that some people need something more to help them overcome their fears and
relax in the dental surgery. We are able to administer a sedative medicine in the form
of an injection. You become drowsy and unaware of any treatment, but you are still
able to co-operate with the dentist. The effects of the sedative medicine takes
some time to where off and the sedationist will tell you how long the drugs will take to
clear from your body. You won't be able to drink alcohol, drive or work machinery
during this time. You will have to arrange for someone to accompany you to and from
the surgery.
We do not administer the sedatives ourselves. We are pleased to have an association with a
reputable group of qualified anaesthetists, called Sedation Solutions, who will attend
the practice by arrangement to provide this intravenous sedation.
