Sedation Dentistry

Patient comfort is at the forefront of everything we do at The Smile Gallery.

That is why we offer sedation to help patients with dental phobia relax during treatment.

We can provide either intravenous or oral sedation.

Dental anxiety can be caused by many things, such as fear of pain, previous experiences, phobia of needles, fear of losing control, or even payment worries.

That’s why we offer dental sedation, to ensure that your experience is as relaxing as possible while receiving the treatment you need.

What are your options?

Intravenous sedation — We offer intravenous sedation for our most anxious patients undergoing dental procedures.

IV sedation is when a sedative is given into a vein. If you are nervous about having dental treatment or you are having a procedure which may be more complex, intravenous (IV) sedation is an effective and safe treatment.

Oral sedation — For patients who want to be sedated but may not feel comfortable with an IV line.

We offer oral sedation in simple tablet form. It will help you to feel calmer and more comfortable while your dentist carries out your treatment.

Important to note:

Whichever form of sedation you opt for, you must bring a friend or relative with you. You won’t be able to travel home on your own.

Dr. Esen and Olivia were extremely gentle on me. I'm a big baby! Dr. Esen numbed my gum and I felt nothing more while she filled the upper tooth. Thank you.

So pleased I went to the Smile Gallery. I’ve had two veneers done with them as well as my usual check ups. Can’t fault them!

Just want to say a MASSIVE thank you too Dr Rahul and Nicole. I was in yesterday for composite bonding and I’m over the moon with my new teeth. Dr Rahul listened to exactly what I wanted and I couldn’t be happier. Both Nicole and Rahul were so kind and reassuring💕would recommend to anyone ☺️

A colleague of mine recommended this brilliant team 👏 😀 that I can only speak highly of when it comes to their professionalism and dedication. I happen to live quite far BUT that honestly is all worth it. Dr Rahul & Dr Jaime ABSOLUTELY THE BEST 👏 👌 I know it's going to be a long journey for me but having such wonderful team will make the process less stressful. I can't thank them enough for being ever so patient, also the ever so lovely receptists whomno matter how busy they are they always welcome you with such warmth. Huge thanks for making a difference to those of us that in a way left it a bit "too late" going to the dentist.

“I cannot recommend the Smile Gallery enough!! I was so nervous before my first consultation, but there really was no need to be! Dr Rahul and his team are all so friendly and professional. I wasn’t sure at first what would be needed to transform my smile, but Dr Rahul really listened to what I wanted to achieve, and he gave me the different options available. I ended up going with porcelain veneers. I am so unbelievably happy with the final result. I can now smile confidently thanks to the Smile Gallery team – you are all the best!” Alice, Tunbridge Wells
