What Is Sedation for Dental Treatments?
Sedation for dental treatments in Ealing helps patients feel calm and comfortable during procedures. It’s ideal for anyone with anxiety, low pain tolerance, or needing complex treatments like implants or extractions. Sedation keeps you conscious but deeply relaxed—so you remain aware but free from stress or fear. Whether you choose inhalation, oral, or IV sedation, your dentist in Ealing will explain what’s best for your comfort and safety. Many patients report they barely remember the procedure at all.
You’ll first have a consultation to discuss your health, medications, and preferences. Your Ealing dentist will guide you through the type of sedation being used—such as breathing in gas, taking a tablet, or receiving a gentle injection. A companion may be needed for your journey home after oral or IV sedation. Throughout your visit, your vital signs are monitored and the clinical team keeps you informed. The goal? A smooth, low-stress dental experience with your comfort as the top priority.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
Aftercare & Ongoing Visits
After sedation, many patients feel sleepy but at ease. If you’ve had inhalation sedation, you’ll likely feel back to normal within minutes. For oral or IV sedation, recovery takes a bit longer, and you'll need someone to stay with you. Avoid alcohol, driving, or making important decisions for 24 hours. Your Ealing dentist will provide aftercare tips specific to your treatment. With proper rest and hydration, you’ll be back to feeling yourself the next day—without the stress that kept you away from the dentist.
