What is Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry is performed for dental procedures for anxious patients by administering medications to help them relax. Many patients avoid getting the required dental help because of their fear of the dentist. Sedation dentistry is performed to ensure that nervous patients enjoy healthy mouths and teeth.

What are the types of dental sedation?

The different types of dental sedation are; inhalation sedation, for patients requiring mild sedation also called anxiolysis; oral sedation, by asking patients to swallow a pill; TENS, using electrical impulses to numb the area; topical anaesthesia, using a swab to numb the area; or intra-venous sedation, for patients requiring moderate sedation and general anaesthesia for patients requiring deep sedation. General anaesthesia is used for patients only in a hospital and not in a dentist chair.

Is Sedation Dentistry painful?

Oral sedation, inhalation sedation, TENS and topical sedation are not painful. Intra-venous sedation and general anaesthesia need to be injected and patients may feel pain when the sedative is injected.

When can I travel by air after Sedation Dentistry?

Patients should travel by air two days after sedation dentistry. They should take the advice of their dentist before embarking on their journey.   

How long does recovery after Sedation Dentistry take?

Recovery from dental sedation takes between 40 to 90 minutes. Recovery depends on the type of sedation administered.  

What after care is required after Sedation Dentistry?

Patients should rest for at least three hours after sedation dentistry. They should not eat for at least four hours, until the anaesthesia wears off. They should take all prescribed medications correctly. They should resume work at least one day after sedation dentistry. They should not smoke or drink alcohol for at least two days after sedation dentistry. They should follow all dietary prescriptions given by their dentist correctly.

So kind and had it done in no time at allNiamh, Ireland, 12 11 20

My young son had to have a molar extraction, he was in a lot of nerve pain. I cannot recommend this surgery enough from the moment he walked in the door the receptionist made him laugh and put him totally at ease. Brendan and his dental nurse were amazing with him, so kind and had it done in no time at all. I never write reviews but I feel like I had to in this case you were all so incredibly kind and caring.

Sedation for dental treatments from €150
If you, or someone you know, is very anxious about undergoing dental treatment then you would benefit greatly from having treatment carried out under intravenous sedation. I.V. sedation is a procedure whereby a sedative drug is administered intravenously prior to having dental treatment. The sedative effects of the drug last for approximately 2 hours, allowing the dentist to complete all the treatment without any fear or apprehension. I.V. sedation is an effective, safer and less costly alternative to general anaesthesia and is available at this dental practice.

I can now smile againPhylomena, Ireland, 18 10 19

Finished my treatment today I am so happy. Dr Shahin was my dentist. As an over 60 I was terrified of seeing a dentist again after a long absence. He was so understanding of my situation and put me at ease from the beginning. I can now smile again. They have seen it all and when you explain your background they understand. Not one bit of pain even though I had a lot done. Thank you, Shahin and staff.
