Sleep Dentistry – Sedation Dentist Melbourne

If you are afraid of visiting the dentist, you’re not alone. However, it isn’t worth enduring the pain of a toothache to avoid getting treatment at the dentist. Through sedation dentistry, our sleep dentists can help take away some of the anxiety of dental procedures required to improve your oral health. You are constantly monitored by our professional anaesthetist and will have no recollection of the procedure.

Take Teeth Sensitivity, Pain and Gag Reflex Out of the Equation

For some people, pain, sensitive teeth, and a bad gag reflex may cause them to fidget more. This may make dental procedures trickier for the dentist, while you feel like you are sitting in the dentist’s chair for an eternity. With sedation dentistry and our expert sleep dentists you can get through procedures with less stress.

Sleep Dentistry Can Help You Focus on Your Oral Health Again!

With the support of sleep dentistry, it has become infinitely easier for those suffering from dental phobias to sit through appointments. We have a team of experts available near Melbourne and Prahran, including sleep dentists and our anaesthetist, each specialising in dental sedation, so they are skilled in delivering a comfortable procedure. Every patient has detailed consultations with both the sleep dentist and anaesthetist before the appointment. During these sessions, we thoroughly explain the process, and answer any concerns or questions the patient might have to alleviate their worries.

We understand that every person has their own circumstances and ensure to customise your appointment accordingly so you can sit back and relax when you visit the clinic based in Melbourne and Prahran.

A few other ways sleep dentistry can assist you are:

Catch-Up to Missed Appointments

Due to phobias and anxiety, many individuals skip out on several dental procedures that require regular attention by dentist. Neglecting your treatments can lead to potentially serious issues going unnoticed, negatively affecting your oral health.

With the help of our sleep dentists, here in Melbourne and Prahran, Dr Chris Darby and Dr Charlie Kong and Dr Julia Nguyen, multiple procedures can be performed during the appointment. However, this depends on the nature of the treatments that must be completed. For instance, a root canal surgery might need its own appointment (or two), whereas teeth cleaning and whitening can be performed in a single sitting. Sleep dentistry can encourage people to routinely go for oral health check-ups and stay up-to-date with their dental appointments.

Build Confidence in Your Smile

Some people might experience a lack of confidence regarding their oral health due to potential genetic predispositions, such as jaw alignment issues or overlapping teeth. This can be especially worse if there’s a pattern of constant neglect due to specific dental triggers.

With the help of our sleep dentists near you in Melbourne and Prahran, you can not only gain confidence in visiting our dental clinic more often, but also feel more comfortable with maintaining your dental hygiene.
