SEDATION DENTIST BURNABY SERVICES
Say Goodbye to Dental Anxiety with Soothing Sedation
Calm Your Nerves With Sedation
Dentistry is stressful and dental anxiety is real.
Dr. Davé and the whole team at Norburn Dental acknowledge it and strive to make the experience for each and every one of their patients as comfortable as possible.
Many reasons one can have dental fear or anxiety include:
- Past traumatic experience
- Having a aentist who didn't listen to their concerns in the past
- Pain during dental procedures which can be easily avoided by providing the appropriate quantity and technique of dental freezing.
At Norburn Dental we can help alleviate your fears by providing you with a gentle and caring chair side manner in a warm and comforting environment. But rest assured there are also other solutions that we can provide to help you have a comfortable and relaxing experience.
Oral Sedation
One of the most commonly used options is oral sedation.
Oral sedation is:
- Painless
- Relaxing
- Safer when compared to moderate IV sedation
- Performed in the comfort of our dental clinic
- Often sought for surgical treatments and wisdom teeth extractions

Frequently Asked Questions
Dr. Davé has lots of experience working with patients who had bad dental experiences in the past and have dental anxiety. Options for such patients depend on how anxious the patients are. Some of the options are treatment and behavioural modifications, open and clear communication, nitrous oxide laughing gas sedation, and oral sedation.
Most patients benefit from just being able to communicate their concerns. Dr. Davé tries to understand what aspects of dentistry are patient anxious about. Some patients feel anxious about needles, some of noise, some are anxious about not being able to swallow or gagging whereas some patients don't feel comfortable laying too far back in the chair.
Depending on the issue, Dr. Davé and the team at Norburn Dental Centre work with the patients to accommodate their special requests to have noise-cancelling headphones, certain tv shows, regular breaks, extra numbing jelly, more dental numbing, not leaning the chair too far back etc.
Yes, Dr. Davé always recommends dental numbing or freezing even if you are being sedated. Oral sedation primarily helps with anxiety. Even though it has very mild pain-relieving effects, it's not sufficient enough to entirely replace dental freezing.
No, you will need a responsible adult to drive you home and stay with you for the rest of the day. There are also other instructions to follow while you are being sedated. Your friendly team at Norburn Dental Centre will provide you with a complete sedation package and will answer all of your questions when you ask for sedation.
