We are aware that there are some patients who are nervous or who may have a phobia about going to the dentist. To combat this, our oral surgeons, supported by their dental nurses, offer conscious sedation*.

In addition we offer anaesthetist-led conscious sedation service whereby patients are sedated by one of our three specialist anaesthetists. It would be recommended that patients undergoing All-on-4 implant surgery, opt in for conscious sedation.

*Please note that conscious sedation is subject to assessment for every patient. Patients who are sedated for treatment must be accompanied home by a chaperone.
