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 Guildford Dental Centre 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 IV sedation at Guildford Dental Centre.

The dentist I saw was very understanding and not at all condescending about my fears. She took steps to be professional, objective and fully explain the procedure, potential problems and preferred outcome. Her approach and thoughtfulness has made me much less anxious about future visits for which I am very grateful.

i originally selected the practice due to a high level of anxiety about dental care and Dr Chavvi has been so very kind and patient. She explains everything in detail and always checks in during the procedure to make sure I'm doing ok. I feel very safe and looked after by her, and fully trust her. She has renewed my confidence completely!

I have always been very well looked after by the team. Prof Haers recommended I switch to this practice years ago and Terry McNulty looked after me for some years before retirement. Derek Whittle took over and I have been just as well looked after by him. 100% happy patient.
