Sedation for nervous patients
As well as providing a relaxing and calming setting for our patients and delivering high standards of care, we also offer techniques, which are designed to help patients to feel more relaxed, including sedation.
Sedation is a method, which is used in medicine and dentistry to help to prevent pain and enable patients to feel more relaxed during procedures, which may be scary or uncomfortable. With sedation, patients are not put to sleep in the same way as general anaesthetic, but they do feel completely relaxed and they don’t feel any pain.
When you are sedated, you feel a little drowsy and not really with it, but you are able to hear and speak and you will remain conscious. After the procedure, you probably won’t remember much and it can take up to 24 hours for the full effects of the sedative to wear off.
