That’s why we specialise in providing a comfortable and anxiety-free experience through our range of sedation dentistry options. Our clinic is dedicated to ensuring that your wisdom tooth removal is as seamless and stress-free as possible.

Our Sedation Options

We offer a variety of sedation methods tailored to your specific needs and level of anxiety:

1. Intravenous (IV) Sedation

• Deep Relaxation: Administered directly into the bloodstream for a profound calming effect.

• Comfort: Many patients have little to no memory of the procedure.

• Professional Care: Performed by our certified dental sedationists to ensure your safety.

2. Nitrous Oxide Sedation (“Happy Gas”)

• Immediate Effect: Inhaled gas that quickly induces relaxation.

• Control: The sedation level can be adjusted throughout the procedure.

• Quick Recovery: Effects wear off rapidly, allowing you to resume normal activities sooner.

3. General Anaesthesia (Full Sedation)

• Complete Unconsciousness: You’re fully asleep during the procedure.

• Advanced Procedures: Recommended for complex extractions or severe dental phobia.
