If the idea of sitting in the dental chair or even calling the dentist to make an appointment keeps you from getting the care you need, or if you have special needs that require a controlled way to restore your oral health, sleep dentistry may be the answer.
Also known as general anaesthesia dentistry, sleep dentistry puts you into a deep, restful sleep. You’ll be completely unaware during your treatment, and you won’t remember it when you wake up.
We partner with Sleep Dentistry Services, so an experienced anaesthetist will manage your anaesthesia while we focus on your oral health.
Am I a Candidate for Sleep Dentistry?
Sleep dentistry is a safe, effective way to receive necessary dental treatment. You may be eligible for sleep dentistry if you have any of the following:
- Severe dental anxiety or phobia of going to the dentist
- Difficult dental experiences in the past
- Special needs that require additional support
- A strong gag reflex that makes it difficult to sit still
- Inability to tolerate local anaesthetic or experience total numbness
