Dental sedation
Sedation is a great option for nervous patients and anyone who feels anxious about receiving treatment. With safe and proven techniques, we administer sedation medication to place you in a relaxed and dream-like state, making it feel as though your appointment passes in no time.
The experienced team at Envisage Dental Basingstoke have helped thousands of patients overcome lifelong fears and dental phobias to finally get the treatment they need.
Sedation facts
- It really works! You really can relax through your dental appointment
- When sedated you will be conscious, but unaware of what is going on around you
- You will have little or no memory of the experience
When receiving sedation you will be fully informed beforehand of any potential side effects and given advice to help with your recovery. You may be advised to bring someone along with you to the appointment who is able to take you home afterwards, and it's advisable to rest for the remainder of the day. You should be back to normal within 24 hours.
We offer the following types of sedation at Envisage Dental Basingstoke. Your dentist will be able to help you advise which type of sedation is right for you:
Oral sedation
Oral sedation is most suited to those with mild to moderate anxiety.
This technique involves swallowing a drug, normally 30 to 60 minutes before the start of dental treatment to induce a relaxed state.
