Almost No Pain with Sleep Dentistry
Leave fear at home when you visit smile2o. smile2o is a sleep dentistry practice in Wokingham, Berkshire, UK. We provide IV Sedation for anxious patients and can help make your treatment virtually pain-free.
Many people fear the Dentist and avoid going and as a result, both dental and general health can suffer. Sleep dentistry enables patients to undergo complex dental treatments (which often require six to eight appointments) in just one consultation.
The term IV Sedation suggests the patient will be completely asleep. In reality, you still remain conscious during IV Sedation. You will also be able to understand and respond to requests from your Specialist. However, many of our patients report they have little or no memory of the procedure or experiencing any pain. When you ‘awake’ you will feel refreshed and at ease.
Sedation dentistry may be an option for you if you suffer from any of the following:
- Limited time to complete dental work
- Difficulty achieving a numb sensation
- Sensitive teeth
- Suffer from complex dental issues
- Dental anxiety from traumatic dental experiences
- Dental phobias – Fear of needles
- Difficulty controlling movement
- Patients who suffer from acute or chronic jaw soreness
- Patients who have a gag reflex
- Patients with physical limitations such as back or neck problems
IV Sedation is a very safe procedure. Sedation performed in dental surgeries by qualified practitioners has an excellent safety record. When the patient is in good health the risk of a serious reaction is very small. During sedation, our Anaesthetist is always with you. Your vital signs are monitored during your entire procedure.
You will require a friend, family member or partner to transport you home, and care for you after your appointment.
