Sedation Consultation

What it is: A dedicated conversation identifies fears, prior experiences, treatment needs and the level of support that may be appropriate.

When considered: It is appropriate when anxiety, a strong gag reflex or longer care may otherwise be a barrier.

What to expect: We begin with an examination and appropriate records, explain the findings, and tailor the sequence to the tooth, tissues, bite, health and goals.

Limits and next step: Suitability, timing and outcome depend on the clinical findings. Alternatives, maintenance and referral needs are reviewed before treatment.
