A Perth Dentist's Blog

Since the inception of Perth Sedation Dentistry, the use of Sleep Dentistry (IV Sedation) for dental procedures has grown rapidly in popularity in WA. But from our experience it is still a very under-utilized service. Patients (and for the most part, dentists) are often not aware of just how it can be applied and the degree of benefit it can provide patients. Every day we still have amazed patients who ask “why doesn’t everyone know about this?”

With our practice building a great reputation as an advanced centre for sleep dentistry, we are often given the opportunity to ’spread the gospel’ of sleep dentistry and the benefits it can provide patients in desperate need of dental treatment – especially when those patients are nervous or when their treatment needs are complex, surgical or extensive.
