Sedation Dentistry
Is A Dream-Like StateIs Great For Nervous Patients
It is common for some people to develop a fear of dental treatment as they are fearful of experiencing pain. This is not uncommon and it is very understandable, and whilst our pain receptors often protect us from dangerous situations, the fear of pain can also prevent us from getting the treatment we really need to resolve issues that can lead to more severe health concerns, particularly where your oral health is concerned.
If dental anxiety is preventing you from getting the care you need to resume full dental fitness, you should consider sedation dentistry. Care Dental’s sedation dentistry in Leicester can free you of any discomfort and fear whilst undergoing your treatment.

IV sedation produces an amnesia-like effect, so you won’t remember much about your dental appointment. In some cases, patients don’t remember any details about their appointment.
