Different Forms of Sleep Dentistry and Which One is Best for You

There are different types of sedation methods that we use at Smile Crew Dentist Croydon. The type of sedation is decided after considering various factors, including – medical history of the patient, duration of the treatment, type of treatment, and the level of anxiety a patient has. Some types of sedation in sleep dentistry include:

General Anaesthesia

General Anaesthesia
A combination of medicines is used by our expert anesthesiologist to put the patient in a sleep-like condition before the dental treatment is performed. The patient is entirely unconscious and doesn’t have any memory of the treatment. Our dentists recommend this method for patients who are unable to open their mouth, individuals with extreme anxiety, old individuals who need to undergo a treatment that will last long.

Intravenous (IV) Sedation

In this method, a sedative is administered through the vein. It is commonly used for minor dental surgeries or less complex dental treatments. IV sedation tends to put you in a sleep-like condition and you feel relaxed. You have little or no memories of the treatment.

Happy Gas

Happy Gas
Happy gas is also known as laughing gas. It is actually Nitrous Oxide which is a mild and safe sedative that helps in managing pain. It is administered through a facemask or a nose piece. It is an effective sedation method to be used for children over 12 years and adults who have mild anxiety problems. Patients who have fear of needles can also opt for this sedation method. Dentists refrain from using Happy Gas on patients who have hay fever, severe cold, or suffer from respiratory issues.

Oral sedation is one of the most common forms of sedation or sleep dentistry. Most patients prefer using this method for sedation. Our dentist prescribes you oral pills before your treatment. The type of drug, dosage, and time of taking the drug is decided and explained by our experts after your treatment is finalized. These drugs help in relaxing, and several patients are given oral sedatives in combination with other sedation methods mentioned above if the treatment requires. Most patients sleep through their treatment and may have no memories of the process.
