Painfree Dentistry / Sedation Dentistry
“It’s nothing personal, but I hate the dentist” is a phrase we hear all too often as dental professionals. At Newtown Elite Dental, we believe dental treatment does not have to be a dreaded ordeal. If you suffer dental anxiety or have neglected your oral health due to fear, our compassionate team is here to help. With a variety of sedation options available, don’t let fear hold you back from getting the treatment you need, or the smile you desire.
IV Sedation
Also known as conscious sedation, sleep sedation or twilight sedation. Our dentists work alongside anaesthetist Dr Kevin lai who provides IV Sedation safely at our practice. You will not hear, see or feel anything. IV Sedation provides 100% pain relief and amnesia, so the patient doesn't remember any details from the procedure.
Relative Analgesia (RA)
Also known as Happy Gas, RA is a commonly used and safe technique prescribed by dentists for treating anxious patients utilising nitrous oxide and oxygen for the relief of dental patients’ anxiety and pain.
Oral Sedation
Anxiety-reducing drugs, such as Valium, can be used to help dental patients relax before a procedure. By administering Diazepam / Valium orally 1 hour before your appointment, dentists can induce sedation, helping you to relax and feel more at ease during your treatment.
