Sedation dentistry
We understand dental treatment can be daunting for some people, especially those who have had negative experiences in the past. This is why we offer a range of anxiolysis and sedation options to get you smiling sooner! It is our priority that you are comfortable, well-looked after and well- informed at all times during your stay with us. Let us help you overcome your anxiety.
If this is something that interests you please book a consultation with one of our dentists to discuss your suitability for the various sedation options we provide.
Laughing Gas
Oral Anxiolysis Sedation
Intravenous (IV) / Twilight Sedation Onsite
We commonly utilise Twilight Sedation for the removal of wisdom teeth and also routine dentistry for the extremely phobic individual. This means that you are asleep throughout your treatment and the other primary benefit of this service is that you avoid going into hospital for day surgery. We work with Dr Frank Nguyen, who has received a Graduate Diploma in Clinical Dentistry for Conscious Sedation and Pain Control from the University of Sydney.
It is important to remember that any surgical or invasive procedure carries with it an inherent risk. Before proceeding with treatment, it is always advisable that you seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
Why do so many people avoid the dentist?
“‘Not knowing what to expect or previous negative experiences in the dental setting are the two most common reasons why people avoid going to the dentist.
BUT we love shifting peoples’ negative views and experiences about dental treatment. We achieve this primarily through focusing on effective communication and emphasise patient education. We make it a point to have extended and where required multiple consultations before we commence any treatment.
This is our point of difference, and our patients value the time we invest in them and in turn feel empowered to tackle their dental treatment needs’. ”
How do you best get patients to relax?
“The relaxed seamless ambiance of our clinic will help you feel at ease immediately. We provide many amenities throughout our beautiful space to pamper you, creating a spa-like environment. We have the best resources available to us so that your comfort is our top priority.
We even have a one of a kind kid’s entertainment area that was specifically designed to help parents relax during their treatment knowing that their children are well occupied. The kids absolutely love coming to see us as a result and it can be hard to get them to leave. ”
