Overview of Sedation Dentistry

Dental phobia or dental anxiety is a common occurrence characterized by fearful reactions to needles or dental drills in a dental clinic. Many patients endure severe toothaches and avoid dental visits due to dental anxiety. Sedation dentistry offers an excellent approach to anxious patients for their dental care. Dental sedation allows dentists to perform treatments in fewer clinical settings and creates a calm environment to reduce dental stress or fear.

What is Sedation Dentistry?

Sedation dentistry, also referred to as sleep dentistry, involves the use of medication administered via IV sedation, making the patient drowsy. Many patients may even fall asleep during the procedure. This approach helps dentists, especially pediatric dentists, work more efficiently and comfortably.

Cost of Sedation Dentistry

The cost of sedation dentistry varies based on the type of sedation used, the patient's level of anxiety, the dental treatment required, and the dentist's experience. The dentist will advise on the most suitable type of sedation and provide an estimate based on individual needs.

Benefits of Sedation Dentistry

• Relieves dental anxiety and fear
• Increases patient comfort
• Improves the overall dental experience
• Reduces gag reflex
• Facilitates easy pain management

Types of Sedation

The type of sedation is selected based on the treatment type, duration, and the patient's level of anxiety.

Inhalation Sedation

Nitrous oxide, also known as happy gas or laughing gas, is used to keep patients calm before and during dental treatments. It helps reduce dental anxiety and is mainly used for children, allowing them to follow the dentist’s instructions without panicking.

Oral Sedation

Oral sedation, or conscious sedation, is administered prior to dental treatment to control anxiety. Patients feel sleepy and often do not remember the procedure.

IV Sedation

IV sedation helps patients relax while the dentist works. Patients might fall asleep but can be easily awakened after the procedure.

General Anesthesia

General anesthesia is recommended for extremely anxious patients or those with medical conditions like epilepsy. It allows for multiple dental treatments to be performed in one session.

Popular Sedation Dentistry Procedures in Dubai

Teeth Cleaning under Sedation

Teeth cleaning is typically a routine procedure that does not require sedation. However, for extremely anxious patients who cannot tolerate the vibrations of the scaler tip or suction sounds, sedation can be used to ensure a more comfortable experience.

Tooth Extraction with Sedation

While tooth extraction is generally performed under local anesthesia, sedation helps manage dental phobia and keeps patients calm, especially for multiple extractions.
