Sedation Dentistry at your Local Dental Clinic in Burnaby

Patients who feel unease or anxiety around visiting the dentist or have a physical difficulty, such as a strong gag reflex, will be pleased to know that we offer several levels of dental sedation at our local dental clinic in Burnaby. A consultation is essential to determine your unique needs, budget, and comfort level. Our dentists will meet with you in a relaxed setting for a conversation about the different options so you can ask questions and we can assess your requirements.   

Oral Sedation at your Local Dental Clinic

Oral sedation provides a mild level of dental sedation that helps you feel calm and relaxed while still conscious during your appointment. The dentist will prescribe you the medication in advance of your visit and provide detailed instructions on how far in advance to take the pills. 

Full Sleep Dentistry

Full sleep dentistry, or deep dental sedation, is an option to help patients with high levels of anxiety or physical difficulties endure dental procedures. Deep sedation allows you to enter a deeply relaxed sleep state without being fully unconscious or needing breathing assistance. Two experienced sedation dentists will always be present to keep you comfortable during the procedure here, at your local dental clinic.
