Lots of people put off the dentist because they are scared. If that is you, you are not alone, and you don’t have to push through it. With sedation you stay calm, and many patients remember very little of the treatment afterwards.
How sedation works at Smile Clinic
An anaesthetist gives you the sedation and stays with you for the whole treatment. They watch your breathing, heart rate and oxygen the entire time. Dr. Marek and the team can work calmly, and often do more in one visit.
Sedation or general anaesthesia?
With sedation you are deeply relaxed and drowsy. With general anaesthesia you are fully asleep. Sedation suits most people. General anaesthesia is for bigger operations. We will tell you which one fits your case.
Who is it for?
- People with a strong fear of the dentist
- Longer treatments, like several implants in one day
- People with a strong gag reflex
- Anyone who has had a bad experience before
