General Sedation — An Overview

General Sedation — An Overview

General sedation places patients in a controlled, deeply relaxed state for dental procedures. Administered by trained professionals, it permits longer or more complex treatments while maintaining safety, comfort, and stable vital signs throughout the appointment.
Before sedation, we review medical history, explain risks and fasting instructions, and arrange monitoring. Recovery is supervised until fully alert. Follow-up guidance is provided to ensure safe aftercare and overall patient well-being and comfort post-procedure.

What Is General Dental Sedation?

General sedation helps patients stay fully relaxed and unaware during dental treatment. It is carefully planned after assessing medical history, anxiety levels, and treatment needs. Medication is given to induce deep relaxation, allowing patients to remain still and comfortable throughout procedures without remembering much afterwards. Throughout sedation, monitoring equipment checks breathing, pulse, and overall stability to ensure complete safety.
The process includes pre-appointment guidance, fasting instructions, and arranging an escort home. During treatment, the dental and sedation teams work together to maintain comfort and control. After the procedure, patients recover in a supervised environment until fully responsive. Clear aftercare instructions support smooth healing and continued well-being.

Are You an Eligible Candidate?

You might be a suitable candidate for general sedation if any of the following apply:
  • Severe dental anxiety: If fear or nervousness makes treatment difficult, sedation can create a calmer, more manageable experience for comfortable dental care.
  • Strong gag reflex: Patients who struggle with procedures due to gagging can benefit from sedation to minimise discomfort and allow smoother treatment.
  • Long or complex procedures: Sedation is ideal when treatments require extended appointments, helping patients stay relaxed and still throughout the entire process.
  • Difficulty sitting still: Patients with conditions affecting movement or attention may find sedation helpful for completing dental procedures safely and comfortably.

Benefits of General Sedation

There are several advantages of general dental sedation:

Deep relaxation

General sedation helps patients feel fully calm, reducing anxiety and making even lengthy or complex dental procedures more manageable and stress-free.

Pain-free experience

Sedation reduces awareness of sensations, allowing patients to undergo treatment without discomfort, fear, or distress during their visit.

Better treatment efficiency

With improved patient stillness and comfort, dentists can work more effectively, completing procedures in fewer appointments when possible.

Ideal for complex cases

Sedation allows clinicians to perform multiple treatments in one visit, making it convenient for patients with extensive dental needs.

Suitable for nervous patients

Individuals with strong dental anxiety or past negative experiences can receive essential care in a comfortable, reassuring, and controlled environment.

Enhanced safety

Monitoring throughout sedation ensures stable vital signs, allowing safe and predictable treatment for patients with challenging dental or emotional needs.
