anxious patients

Most people get apprehensive when going to the dentist. However, sedation or "sleep dentistry" is a very popular choice for nervous or anxious patients. Once administered it allows all your dental work to be carried out without you being aware of it. Often more demanding treatments that involve multiple appointments can be done in as little as one.

Because you are completely comfortable, we can do years of dental treatments in one or two visits. All while you sleep. After your treatment has finished, the sedation slowly wears off until you are back to normal. Best of all, you will wake up refreshed with little or no memory of what was accomplished. It is extremely safe and our dedicated sedation team pride themselves in the high quality of care in looking after you from your arrival to discharge. You'll never be afraid to go to the dentist again!

Both our sedation dentists are members of the Society for the Advancement of Anaesthesia in Dentistry, and the Dental Sedation Teachers Group. Dr McConnell is currently the only dentist in Cornwall to be a Dental Phobia Certified dentist.
