Dental sedation takes the fear out of your visit to the dentist. Suppose you’ve been going through a rough patch with dental sedation services at previous practices. In that case, you can rest assured that when looking for dental sedation in Sydney, our Mosman Dental Clinic is one of your most reliable places to visit without having a fear of the dentist’s chair.

IV SEDATION

This dental sedation technique entails administering an anti-anxiety compound through the veins. This type of sedation is also called “sleep dentistry” or “twilight dentistry.” The truth is, the drug won’t make you fall asleep but will help you feel at ease and relaxed.

NITROUS OXIDE

This dental sedation method involves breathing in nitrous oxide (laughing gas) together with oxygen through a mask. The dentist will control the amount of sedation you get, helping you to relax. When it comes to dental sedation in Sydney, this is the only sedation method where you can drive yourself home after the procedure.

ORAL SEDATION

For minimal sedation, your dentist will recommend taking a pill for dental sedation. Taking oral medicine will make you drowsy, even though you won’t fall asleep. Sometimes, larger doses are given in order to achieve moderate sedation.
