It might sound disingenuous to tell you that getting a tooth removed isn’t the traumatic experience that it used to be two or three decades ago -but it’s true!
Especially as our dentists here at Bancroft Dentistry have a therapeutic approach to tooth extractions, making sure you’re comfortable and relaxed before any treatment goes ahead.
We’ll numb the treatment site, so you genuinely won’t feel any pain during the procedure.
If you’re particularly nervous, we can carry out IV sedation and put you “under”, though you will be fully conscious and able to communicate with your dentist.
This form of sedation feels a little like a ‘high’, causing anxiety and nerves to float away in seconds.
It’s a fantastic resource for helping patients put aside their nerves and to help them build confidence for dental procedures in the future too.
