What is Sedation (Sleep) Dentistry Exactly?
The name ‘sleep dentistry’ is somewhat misleading because unlike a general anaesthetic, the patient isn’t normally asleep. On the contrary, ‘conscious sedation dentistry’ as it’s perhaps better known, places the patient in a relaxed but conscious state enabling them to receive treatment in a comfortable way.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the advantages of sedation dentistry in Kellyville Ridge?
Perhaps the biggest advantage of sleep dentistry is that it creates an amnesic effect – meaning that most patients don’t remember much about the treatment. This is ideal for those undergoing relatively invasive treatments such as dental implants. Finally, sedation dentistry allows for multiple treatments to be carried out in one longer appointment for the utmost convenience.
