Sleep Dentistry

Sleep dentistry offers an alternative for patients that find dental treatments scary or want to have multiple treatments completed in the one sitting. Sedation is an option for almost all aspects of dental care, including routine cleanings, cosmetic dentistry, and other treatments. Our team at Dental Avenue we will make sure you are completely comfortable before starting treatment.

Pain-free treatment while you sleep!

Dental Avenue offers Intra-venous sedation for a wide range of treatment applications and situations. Depending on why you are considering sleep dentistry will help us decide which treatment option is best for you.

Cases where appropriate / beneficial

  • Patients who are dental phobic, suffer from anxiety or fear, or who simply do not like the smells & noises associated with dental work
  • Patients who need extensive treatments ideal for time-poor patients and business-people who can elect to have most/all of their treatment completed in one session
  • Complex or multiple treatments including all restorative and cosmetic work, plus various types of dental surgery can be carried out quickly and painlessly
  • Patients who have difficulty with normal treatment due to issues such as sensitive teeth and gums, strong gag reflex, small mouths, or who do not always go numb.

Benefits of Sleep Dentistry

Sleep dentistry provides you with plenty of benefits such as:

  • You will be allowed to sleep through the entire process.
  • You can often have multiple treatments completed in one session.
  • You will be relieved of possible discomfort associated with long and complex procedures.
  • Children and adults alike can have most dental procedures performed via sleep dentistry including fillings, crowns, multiple extractions, removal of wisdom teeth and implant placements.
  • You will be in a dream-like state, though you will remain conscious and responsive

Unpleasant past dental procedures or general fear of the dentist can prevent patients from seeking essential dental treatment. With sedation options, we can help you overcome anxiety in conjunction with other dental procedures so that the experience is one that is pleasant as opposed to fear provoking! A calm and relaxed visit is our goal for all patients. We are here to help and will walk with you every step of the way when discussing your treatment plan and options for sleep dentistry.
Sleep dentistry can make your next dental appointment simple and worry-free. For more information, speak to one of our dentists.

Sleep Dentistry Faqs

The time it takes for the sedative to wear depends on a few elements including the dose you received, how long the treatment was, and how quick your body recovers. Sedation does cause drowsiness and so we strongly recommend having a friend or relative to drive you to and from your appointment. We suggest you do not drive a vehicle, drink alcohol or operate machinery after as it can be very dangerous to you and others.

All types of procedures can be completed using sleep dentistry. It is common practice that patients undertaking this type of dentistry decide to have several treatments done in the one sitting.

Sleep dentistry is a safe and effective way for many patients to receive dental treatment and we will take the time to discuss if this option is the right one for you.

In most circumstances, patients do not feel anything. There is minimal discomfort and at the end of the appointment most patients feel relaxed with little memory of the treatment itself due to the effects of the sedation.

Patients will be in a dream-like state, but conscious and responsive.

Dental Avenue is the best dental practice I have ever been too. Everything about the experience is amazing, from the lovely front reception plus the nurses and dentists. Top tip, if you are looking for the most caring, gentle and just all round great human, Dr Edward Chin is an amazing dentist. Myself and my two children see him and he’s so wonderful with the kids. I also had to have an intense extraction and he was the best. 1000% recommend. Bonus - There is also free parking across the road.
