Dental treatment while you sleep

IV sedation (intravenous sedation) involves administering a sedative medication directly into a vein, inducing a deeply relaxed, sleep-like state. Unlike general anaesthesia, you remain able to respond to verbal prompts, but most patients have little to no memory of the procedure afterwards.

At Lumi Dental, IV sedation is administered by a qualified IV sedationist in compliance with ANZCA PG09(G) guidelines. Our sedation suite includes full monitoring equipment including pulse oximetry, capnography, blood pressure and ECG. You are in safe, supervised hands throughout.
