I am petrified of dentistry

[Roy]

I wonder if you can help me. When i was younger i had a horrible experience at the dentist and ever since i am petrified of dentistry and scared of dentist.

I know i need dental treatment as i have toothache, but i dread making that appointment. Can i be put to sleep under general anaesthetic for dental treatment?

A friend of mine had intravenous sedation for his dental work, and he had relaxed dental treatment. Do you offer general anaesthetic and sedation at your practice?

Thank you for your post.

Very little adult general dentistry is carried out under GA these days because of the risks that doing general anaesthetic carries. IV Sedation is a very good safe alternative to GA which we do offer at Pearl dental clinic and it can make patients much more relaxed during dental treatment.
