Yes, most people remain awake but deeply relaxed during sedation dentistry at Cherrybank Dental Spa. With oral sedation, you’ll likely feel drowsy but still responsive. IV sedation can create a deeper state where you may not remember much of the procedure, but you’re still conscious and can respond if needed. You won’t be fully asleep unless general anaesthesia is used, which is different from the sedation options offered. The goal is to keep you at ease throughout your treatment without discomfort or distress.

No, sedation at Cherrybank Dental Spa isn’t just for major procedures. It’s also ideal for people with dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, or difficulty sitting still for long periods. Whether you’re coming in for a clean, a filling, or a more complex treatment, sedation can be tailored to suit your needs. It helps create a more relaxed experience, even for shorter visits. The team will discuss your options and recommend the right approach to make your time in the chair more manageable and less stressful.

Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed tablet before your dental procedure to help you feel calm and relaxed. IV sedation is delivered through a vein, allowing the dentist to adjust the level of sedation more precisely throughout the treatment. At Cherrybank Dental Spa in Perth, both options are available depending on your needs, the complexity of your treatment, and your comfort level. Oral sedation offers mild to moderate relaxation, while IV sedation provides a deeper sense of calm and is more suitable for those with high anxiety or undergoing longer procedures.
