What is sedation dentistry?
Sedation dentistry refers to techniques used to help patients feel relaxed and at ease during dental procedures.
At our practice, we focus on gentle local anaesthetic methods and careful communication to make your experience positive and stress-free.
Local anaesthetic
Local anaesthetic is one of the most common ways to numb a tooth or area of the mouth during dental treatment.
It blocks pain sensations while allowing you to remain fully awake and aware.
Before administering a local anaesthetic, we apply a topical numbing gel to the gums using a small cotton swab. This helps desensitise the area so you’ll feel little to no discomfort during the injection.
Local anaesthetic is typically used for:
- Fillings and restorations
- Tooth extractions
- Root canal treatments
- Crown or bridge procedures
The numbing effect usually lasts around one to two hours, depending on the treatment. You can drive and return to your normal activities soon after your appointment.
