Are there any dentists close to Motherwell that can provide sedation through the NHS?
hi i have a severe phobia of dentists and i need a lot of work done, i was wondering if i got sedated would they be able to do all the work in 1 go as i don’t think i could return for a 2nd or 3rd treatment, also is there a dentist near Motherwell Lanarkshire that would provide sedation on NHS ??
Hello
It depends what the work is that you need done as to whether it could be done all at once ..
For most people who have IV sedation they are unaware of what is being done , and remember very little . You may well find that a second session then becomes a possibility . Sometimes a lot of work done all at once can be of a compromised quality .
Im not sure about a practice that provides sedation on the NHS in your area .
Mike Gow in Glasgow , and a very good practice for nervous patients in Edinburgh have had good reports , and may be able to help
Google Nervous patients , dental phobia , Glasgow , Edinburgh , and see if you can find them .
