Provision of Pain Control
While we value your preferences and concerns about sedation, the final decision regarding which type of sedation is most appropriate rests with Dr Fine as your qualified dental sedationist. This professional approach ensures your safety and the effectiveness of your treatment.
Personalised Dental Care and Sedation
The type of sedation is decided based on several critical factors including your medical history, current health status, the nature and complexity of your dental procedure, and your individual anxiety level. Dr Fine carefully evaluates each of these elements during your consultation to determine the most suitable sedation approach.
For example, a patient with certain medical conditions might not be suitable for IV sedation but could benefit greatly from nitrous oxide. Similarly, someone undergoing complex dental implant surgery may require deeper sedation than someone having a routine filling, regardless of their personal preference.
During your initial consultation, Dr Fine will discuss the available sedation options with you, explain why he's recommending a particular approach and address any concerns you may have. This collaborative discussion ensures you understand the reasoning behind his professional recommendation while feeling comfortable and informed about your sedation choice.
Your safety and comfort are paramount, and Dr Fine's professional assessment ensures you receive the most appropriate sedation for your unique circumstances.
