What is intravenous sedation?
Intravenous (IV) sedation is a combination of medicines (midazolam) that is administered into either your hand or arm by canula. Sedation relaxes you so that you can undergo dental or medical procedures without feeling or remembering the experience. Although sedated you will still be awake and voice responsive, most patients generally fall asleep. It is a very effective treatment to aide dental phobic patients.


How much does IV sedation cost?
The cost of IV sedation varies depending on the complexity of the procedure and the length of sedation required. At Precision Dental Clinic, we offer transparent pricing and flexible payment options to make your treatment as accessible as possible. Our team will provide a personalised cost estimate during your consultation. Investing in IV sedation allows nervous patients to receive essential dental care without fear or discomfort.
