London Dental Specialists offers several sedation options for periodontal surgery, including:
The appropriate sedation method will be recommended based on your procedure complexity, anxiety level, and medical history.
While local anaesthesia is sufficient to eliminate pain during periodontal surgery, sedation is highly recommended for patients with dental anxiety, those undergoing lengthy procedures, or complex treatments. Sedation helps you remain comfortable and relaxed throughout the procedure, reducing stress and making the experience more pleasant. Your periodontist at London Dental Specialists will discuss whether sedation is appropriate for your specific treatment.
Nitrous oxide, commonly known as 'laughing gas,' is a mild sedative that helps manage anxiety during periodontal treatment. It's an odourless, colourless gas administered through a small mask placed over your nose. The gas takes effect quickly, inducing a feeling of relaxation and mild euphoria while maintaining full consciousness. The effects wear off rapidly once the gas is stopped, allowing you to drive home safely after your procedure at London Dental Specialists.
Oral conscious sedation involves taking a prescribed sedative medication (usually in pill form) approximately one hour before your periodontal procedure. This creates a deeper state of relaxation than nitrous oxide, and many patients may even doze off during treatment while still being able to respond to verbal commands. Due to the lingering effects, you'll need someone to accompany you home after your appointment at London Dental Specialists.
IV sedation delivers sedative medications directly into your bloodstream, producing a deeper level of sedation while still maintaining consciousness. This is recommended for patients with severe anxiety, complex or lengthy periodontal surgeries, or those who have difficulty getting numb with local anaesthesia alone. IV sedation is administered and monitored by qualified professionals at London Dental Specialists, ensuring your safety throughout the procedure.

London Dental Specialists will provide detailed aftercare instructions based on your specific sedation type.
Memory of your periodontal procedure depends on the sedation level chosen. With nitrous oxide, you'll likely remember most of your treatment. Oral and IV sedation often produce partial or complete amnesia of the procedure, which many anxious patients find beneficial. This amnesia effect helps reduce the formation of negative dental memories and can make future dental visits less stressful. Your periodontist at London Dental Specialists can discuss expected memory effects for your chosen sedation method.
