About Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients feel relaxed and at ease during dental treatment. It’s often recommended for nervous patients, longer procedures, or oral surgery.

At Peppermint Dental Centre, we provide safe, professional sedation options tailored to your needs. We use several different types of sedation including intravenous and inhalation, which allows you to feel deeply relaxed while remaining conscious.

With sedation, you’ll feel calm and comfortable, and most patients remember very little of the procedure. It’s a safe and effective way to make dental treatment stress-free.
