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.

Before your appointment please:

  • 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.

After 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.

🪥 Smile hack: timing your tooth brushing

Did you know that brushing your teeth straight after eating isn’t always the best idea?

In this quick video, Maggie explains why it’s better to wait a little while before brushing. After eating, especially acidic foods and drinks, the enamel on your teeth can be temporarily softened. Brushing too soon can actually cause more wear.

Waiting around 30 minutes gives your saliva time to neutralise the acids and protect your teeth.

Watch Maggie’s smile hack to learn the simple change that can help keep your teeth healthier.

Did you know that chewing sugar free gum after eating can actually help protect your teeth? 🍬➡️🦷

In this video, Carol explains why dentists often recommend sugar free gum after meals. Chewing gum stimulates saliva, which helps wash away food particles and neutralise acids that can lead to tooth decay.

It’s not a replacement for brushing, but it can be a helpful extra habit when you’re out and about and can’t brush your teeth straight away.
