IV Sedation

15th August 2023

IV (intravenous) sedation is fast-acting and allows even the most apprehensive patients to take one step closer in their journey to a full and healthy smile. This incredible sedation method is known for being extremely effective in helping nervous patients to relax in the dentist’s chair.

Overview

The effects of sedation are almost instantaneous: as soon as the sedative is administered, using a small needle on the back of your hand will induce feelings of deep relaxation, wellbeing and comfort. Whilst under IV sedation, you will be fully awake and have full capacity to open and close your mouth and speak with your dentist as they perform your surgery.

Working alongside your implant surgeon will be a second experienced clinician who will monitor your response to the sedative closely. Your vitals, blood pressure and reactions will be very closely observed throughout.
