What is Sedation Dentistry

The process of giving sedatives to the patient to make them feel relaxed, comfortable and anxiety-free during the procedure. During sedation, the person is conscious and relaxed.  For invasive treatments, the patient is unconscious.

Benefits of Sedation Dentistry

• Pain Relief

Sedatives help the patient to undergo a painless dental procedure. The brain prevents the registration of pain while the patient is under a powerful Sedative.
