How should I prepare for sleep dentistry treatment?

The best way to prepare for sleep dentistry treatment is to follow your dentist’s instructions and always share your health history, including current medical diagnoses and medications, with our dental clinic.

Examples of what your instructions might entail include:

  • Not eating or drinking for a specific time before treatment
  • Not taking medications for a specific time before treatment
  • Ensuring you have transportation after your treatment.

Your dentist will provide more specific instructions based on your unique health history.

About Sleep Dentistry in Pascoe Vale, VIC

Sleep dentistry is ideal for patients with dental phobias or anxiety. It should also be considered for lengthy and invasive dental treatments or those with a strong gag reflex.

For sleep dentistry, we administer anaesthesia through an IV, so you’ll not recall your treatment or feel anxious while in the dental chair. We then closely monitor your progress as we treat your smile.

It’s crucial to arrange transportation after your treatment, as you should not drive. We also recommend resting for the day and not making any important life decisions.
