1. Is sedation safe?

Yes, dental sedation is very safe when provided by trained and experienced professionals. At our practice, your safety is our top priority. Sedation is carefully administered and continuously monitored by a qualified anaesthetist, who remains present throughout your procedure to ensure your comfort and well-being.

2. How do I know if I’m suitable?

Every patient is unique, and we take the time to understand your individual needs. During a consultation, we will listen to your concerns, review your medical history, and guide you through your options. This allows us to determine whether sedation is appropriate and tailor the experience specifically for you.

3. Is sedation Medisave claimable?

Sedation itself is considered an adjunct to the main procedure and is not claimable under Medisave. However, certain surgical treatments—such as wisdom tooth removal, dental implants, or cyst removal—may be eligible for Medisave claims.

4. What should I expect?

To ensure your safety, you will be asked to fast for approximately 8 hours before your appointment. After your procedure, you will be guided to a private recovery area where you can rest comfortably as the sedation wears off. For your safety, we recommend having a trusted adult accompany you home once you are ready to leave.

5. Will I feel hungry?

As many procedures are scheduled in the morning, you may feel like you’ve missed a meal. Once you have recovered, light refreshments will be provided, and you can gradually return to your normal diet as advised.

Our goal is to provide a gentle, reassuring experience so you can receive the care you need with confidence and peace of mind.
