Sedation enables patients who experience nausea or are disturbed by metal noise during dental treatment to go through this process without any problems. It creates a comfortable and safe environment for patients who have fear of the dentist.

How is it applied?

Sedation is frequently used in dentistry for fearful, anxious patients, mentally disabled children and adult patients. Especially in child patients with many cavities, long procedures in the dentist's chair cause a feeling of boredom in child patients and cause them to abandon treatments.
Or, due to the sudden movements of anxious young children during these treatments or their fear of local anesthesia, procedures cannot be performed with the desired comfort and treatment becomes difficult for both the child and the doctor. In such cases, if the child patient cannot be treated consciously, treatment can be performed with sedation. Adults are half asleep and obey commands. It causes drowsiness in children. The Most Important Result of Sedation-Performed Dental Treatment in Children is Preventing Psychological Trauma. It can be applied to heart and blood pressure patients.
It is necessary to stay hungry and thirsty for 4-6 hours before the treatment. Towards the end of the sedation process, the medication is stopped and the patient is allowed to wake up. The patient wakes up in a very short time after the medication is stopped and the patient who comes to can go home after approximately 30 minutes. The patient does not remember anything after the procedure. It is not safe to drive after the procedure.

After going home, you can start eating and drinking, first liquid foods, at the time your doctor allows (usually 1.5-2 hours later). Warm and soft foods are good options for nutrition.

In zirconium applications, since the metal is white, less tooth cutting is done and the remaining tooth tissue is protected. Depending on the high compression resistance of zirconium, it can be easily used in bridges with 3 units and above, and it gives very successful results in the future.
