Information about Intravenous Sedation
You have elected to have your treatment with intravenous sedation. This treatment allows you to receive dental treatment in a relaxed fashion and in the majority of people causes amnesia meaning that you will have no memory of treatment carried out.
It is important that you follow these guidelines.
Make sure that you are clear about the treatment that you are having and that you are happy to go ahead
Do not drink alcohol or use any recreational drugs the night before your appointment
Make sure that you will have an escort who can come with you to your appointment, drive you home after your treatment and stay with you after your appointment
Eat a light meal 2 hours prior to your appointment
You will be asked to pay for your treatment before your appointment.
Do not drive, operate heavy machinery or sign legal documents
Do not go back to work on the day of treatment
You must have an escort to drive you home and have someone with you at home afterwards
Do not drink alcohol or use recreational drugs
Most people go home and go to bed as you will feel very tired
Please note that you can park at the rear of the building behind Waitrose when your escort takes you to the car. You cannot walk home or take a taxi on your own after your sedation.
Please call the practice if you have any concerns or questions on 01275 842 550.

How do you know if you grind your teeth?
Teeth grinding often happens without you realising — especially at night. In this video, Maggie explains some of the common signs to look out for, including:
• Jaw pain or soreness
• Frequent headaches
• Worn or flattened teeth
She also explains how your dentist can check for signs of grinding and, if needed, provide a mouthguard to help protect your teeth.
If you’ve ever wondered whether you might be grinding your teeth, this quick video is a great place to start 👇

Can mouthwash replace brushing?
In this short video, Carol explains why brushing for two minutes, twice a day is essential for keeping your teeth and gums healthy — and why mouthwash should not be seen as a replacement.
She also talks about:
• When mouthwash may be appropriate
• Why mouthwash should only be used if directed by a dentist or hygienist
Simple habits, done properly, make the biggest difference.
