- IV sedation

One of our most popular techniques for easing dental phobia is IV sedation. This is where you will be fully conscious but extremely relaxed and less aware of your surroundings and what is happening during your appointment.

The sedation we offer is given intravenously, through a vein in your hand rather than in a tablet or inhalation form. This method works faster, we have more control over the dosage, and it works for a longer period of time, meaning we can carry out multiple treatments in one appointment.

Your dentist will evaluate your health and medical history before offering IV sedation.

- Dental fear? We understand!

Dental fear is extremely common and something that you should never feel embarrassed about.

We encounter dental fear at some level almost every day at Parkview Dental Centre so we understand what it is like for patients who are nervous about visiting the dentist.

Common dental fears:

A fear of the unfamiliar
A dislike of the different sounds and smells of a dental practice
A traumatic previous experience
A ‘inherited’ fear – a learned behaviour if a parent was a nervous patient
Nervous about pain
Worries about being ‘told off’ by the dentist
Concerns about the safety of the dental practice during the pandemic

For some people, their dental phobia is extremely intense and they are unable to even walk in to a dental practice. Others may suffer more mildly but still do not find it an enjoyable experience and will subsequently put off routine appointments and treatments. However dental anxiety affects you, we can help.

Not only will we enable you to receive the dental treatment you need or want, but we’ll also help you to enjoy visiting the dentist – and we’ll enjoy seeing you!

- Frequently asked questions

How often should I see a dentist?
At the minimum, you should see a dentist for a check-up and dental clean twice per year. You may need to have more frequent visits if you are struggling with a dental health problem like gum disease or heavy tartar build-up.
Do I need dental X-rays?
X-rays are very important to diagnosing your dental problems and planning safe treatment. This kind of imaging is the only way a dentist can see into your tooth without cutting it open. When you have a dental checkup, your dentist will let you know if you are due for a new set of X-rays.
What are the signs that I need a dental filling?
Advanced tooth decay can make your teeth sensitive to temperature and sweets and may present as brown, grey, or yellow stains on your teeth. A throbbing toothache is also a sure sign that your tooth may need repair. But early tooth decay does not cause such noticeable symptoms. In most cases, you will not know that you need a filling unless the dentist notices one on a dental X-ray.
