Dental sedation — what to ask.
Dental sedation helps a patient feel calm during treatment. It is given into a vein in the hand or arm, or breathed in as a mix of nitrous oxide and oxygen.
Six questions to ask before you book
- 01
Who would give the sedation, and would a separate trained person monitor me throughout?
- 02
Which type of sedation would it be, and what checks do you do beforehand?
- 03
Would I need someone to take me home, and how long does recovery take?
- 04
Could you tell me who would treat me, and are they on the GMC, NMC or GDC register?
- 05
Could you send me the price before I book, including any consultation fee?
- 06
What does the first consultation involve, and is there a fee?
