Pain Free Sleep Dentistry with IV Dental Sedation
At Tooth Sparkler Family Dental, we understand that sometimes coming to the dentist for treatment can be scary, and we don’t want this to stop you from receiving the treatment you need.
We now offer IV sedation for patients who find that dental procedures cause anxiety.
The aim of conscious sedation is to make you feel relaxed and comfortable during your dental procedure. Sedative and analgesic medications are carefully adjusted to make you peacefully sleepy without becoming unconscious. You are able to breathe on your own, and communication is possible if needed. The dentist and dental nurse will be by your side the whole time to monitor your needs.
After your treatment, you’ll be taken to a comfy chair and given a warm blanket to recover until the effects of the sedation have worn off — which usually isn’t too long.
If this sounds like something you would benefit from, please contact us today to book a consult appointment.
Amanda
Amanda is an intensive care doctor (BMed [Dist], BMedSci) who has been working since 2015 across several NSW hospitals caring for critically ill patients, and in operating theatres as an anaesthetic registrar.
She is available to provide conscious sedation for patients who may experience debilitating anxiety around dental procedures. Amanda will assess the suitability for intravenous sedation beforehand (starting with a phone consultation reviewing any medical comorbidities) and will closely monitor the patient before, during and shortly after the procedure. She loves being able to help patients through what can be a stressful experience, and also enjoys the excuse to work closely with her long time dentist and friend Dr Lonergan!
In her free time Amanda is usually preoccupied with expanding her repertoire of wiggles songs that make her baby boy laugh, or trying to catch a dip at her local beach Coogee.
