Sleep dentists technically called Dental Anaesthesiologists are trained to administer intravenous and inhalational medications for all dental procedures.

Dental Anesthesia is not only for anxious patients but many patients enjoy the comfort of completing long or complex procedures in a relaxed environment.

In addition to the Dental Anaesthesiologists and when sedation is administered intravenously (through a vein in one’s arm) there is always a Registered nurse and Dental Assistant present. Our sleep dentist in Whitby monitor the patient with an electrocardiogram, pulse oximeter, and blood pressure is taken routinely (similar to a hospital operating room). The patient also receives extra oxygen on a continuing basis. After the procedure patients can leave the office usually after about 60 minutes following the completion of the procedure. They will need to be accompanied home by a responsible adult and will more than likely sleep for the remainder of the day.
