How Sedation Can Help You
It’s normal to feel nervous about the dentist. If anxiety has made appointments difficult, or kept you away altogether, sedation can help you get the treatment you need in comfort. We offer inhalation sedation for children and intravenous sedation for adults at our practice in Oakham.
If a child needs sedation on the NHS they are usually referred to a specialist centre, and that referral can mean waiting up to a year. We are the only practice in Rutland offering inhalation sedation for children in-house, so your child can be treated here, by a team they already know, in weeks rather than months.
Inhalation sedation for children
Breathed in through a small mask, it helps a child feel calm within minutes. They stay awake and aware throughout, and it wears off quickly afterwards.
IV sedation for adults
Given through a small cannula in the arm for deeper relaxation. Most adults remember very little of the treatment itself.
Dental anxiety and phobia
If the thought of an appointment keeps you awake, or has kept you away for years, sedation can make treatment feel manageable again.
A strong gag reflex
Sedation relaxes the reflex that can make impressions, x-rays and work towards the back of the mouth difficult or unpleasant.
Longer or more complex treatment
Implant placement, surgical extractions and full-mouth work are far more comfortable when you are relaxed and the time passes quickly.
No hospital referral needed
Because we provide sedation here at the practice, most patients avoid a referral to a specialist centre and the months of waiting that come with it.
Difficulty getting numb
Some people find local anaesthetic alone doesn’t settle them. Sedation reduces the anxiety that can make numbness harder to achieve.

I recently went to Green Oakham for an Invisalign consultation which I cannot fault. Having been to a different dentist before where it felt extremely clinical and pushy this was a whole different experience. I was made to feel at ease, taken care of and my best interest at heart.
Eliza Williams
Excellent and friendly staff, lovely calm atmosphere, with excellent treatment, beautifully efficient.

Your Questions, Answered Honestly
If you have any other questions, please email us.
What is dental sedation?
Sedation uses medication to help you feel calm and relaxed during treatment. It is not a general anaesthetic — you remain conscious and able to respond, but far less aware of what is happening and much more comfortable throughout.
Which type of sedation would I or my child have?
Is sedation safe?
How much does sedation cost?
