Sedation for Full-Mouth Treatment in London

Sedation for full-mouth treatment lets us complete extensive restorative work in fewer, longer visits, because you are relaxed enough to sit through them. We review your medical history at a consultation and choose the sedation method to match.

How many appointments you need, and how long each will be, depends on your case. We settle both at your initial assessment with Dr Ope Sodeinde.

Managing anxiety during extensive dental work

A full-mouth plan is where anxiety costs most, because the work stretches across long appointments and several visits. Our sedation dentistry in London range covers IV sedation and oral sedation in the practice, nitrous oxide for children, and general anaesthesia through a hospital pathway. We assess your suitability and the requirements of your reconstruction at the consultation.

Specialist planning for complex reconstructions

Full-mouth work needs every phase coordinated, so we plan it under one specialist rather than fragmenting it across providers. Where a single procedure is the sticking point, see sedation for wisdom teeth removal.

We diagnose first, so you pay only for the treatment you need, and once the plan is set you get an itemised quote showing where every fee goes. Recovery steps are in our sedation aftercare guide.

Who sedation for full-mouth treatment suits

We provide intravenous sedation for patients who feel a loss of control or a deep fear of the dentist during long, complex procedures. You stay conscious but deeply relaxed, which is the same approach used for sedation for implant surgery. The deepest option we provide in the practice is IV sedation. A responsible adult must escort you home. We review your medical history at the consultation to confirm you are a candidate.

What happens on the day

Assessment

We confirm that conscious sedation is right for you. It suits patients with a sensitive gag reflex or a long procedure ahead of them, and we check your medical history before setting the dose.

Planning the dose

We decide how much sedation each visit needs. For patients with milder nerves, oral sedation may be enough.

The sedated appointment

The clinician administers the sedation, then the local anaesthetic, and we carry out the planned work. If sedation for root canal is part of the plan, we coordinate it within the same session.

Managing the time in the chair

Full-mouth sessions run longer than single-tooth work. We monitor you throughout, and we are straightforward about how long each visit will take.

Recovery

We monitor you until the sedation has worn off. You leave with written aftercare instructions and your companion.

Clinical safety and sedation protocols for full-mouth treatment

Every case begins with a complete consultation, a pre-assessment and a medical history review. The practice is led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, GDC-registered specialist periodontist (GDC No. 104071). Sedation is administered by appropriately trained clinicians, and we monitor you throughout each procedure and during recovery.

You must arrange for someone to accompany you home, and you must not drive or operate machinery for at least 24 hours after sedation.

Common concerns about sedated full-mouth treatment

How much does sedation for full-mouth treatment cost?

We confirm the sedation fee at your consultation, once the reconstruction is planned, and give you an itemised quote.

How long does it take?

It depends on the extent of the work and how it is split across visits. We give you a timeframe, including recovery, at your assessment.

Is it painful?

Local anaesthetic numbs the area being treated. The sedation keeps you deeply relaxed while still able to respond, which also helps patients who need sedation for gum surgery as part of the plan.

How long do the effects last?

The sedation wears off after each appointment. The long-term result depends on the dental work itself, which we discuss during planning.

Your sedation assessment

We settle the approach to your comfort at a consultation that covers your medical history and the scope of the work. Dr Sodeinde matches the plan to your case.

You can learn what happens at your sedation consultation and how to book.
