Nervous Patients
in Hendon

For those patients who would prefer to be sedated during big treatments, we will discuss the options available to you.

This is when the anti-anxiety drug, is administered into the blood system during dental treatment. IV sedation induces a state of deep relaxation and a feeling of not being bothered by what's going on. The drugs used for IV sedation produce either partial or full memory loss for the period when the drug first kicks in until it wears off. As a result, time will appear to pass very quickly and you will not recall much of what happened. Many people remember nothing at all. So it may, indeed, appear as if you were "asleep" during the procedure.
