no pain dentistry

[Azam]

Hi

I used to see dentist that had been treating my teeth for over 25 years years in London and unfortunately he recently retired and a new team of dentists took over his practice.

He was a very gentle dentist who practiced no pain dentistry and in the 25 years that I used to see him for my dental care, he not once caused me any pain and it was a pleasure going to see him every 6 months.

My dentist used to provide me with IV sedation for nearly all dental treatments and with the sedation, I could honestly say that the treatment was totally painless.

Unfortunately the new dentists that have taken over his practice no longer provide IV sedation and this has led me to look for another practice that does provide IV sedation.

Could you tell me if you also provide IV sedation for simple things such as fillings as I need a new filling because my premolar tooth has cracked recently. Do you need to see me for a check up first and how quickly can the procedure be done?

Thank you for your post. We do provide patients with no pain dentistry and we use various methods to achieve this goal. We provide both single drug IV sedation (with an experienced sedation dentist) and multi drug IV sedation with (with an experienced specialist anaesthetist).

IV sedation can be provided even for things such as fillings as long as you are medically fit and well. You need to book for a consultation first by calling reception on 0208 547 9997.
