Referral Sedation Service

Dr Roy Bennett, Mellow DentalI have a special interest in conscious sedation and I am keen to make the procedure more accessible to practices and their patients. If you are a dentist and wish to offer sedation to your patients, I can undertake or help with sedation in your own practice. I supply all the equipment, drugs and paperwork that are needed, allowing your team to concentrate on the treatment whilst we look after the sedation aspect. Sedation is of great benefit to patients and practices undertaking implants and oral surgery, those who gag easily or those who are simply anxious about treatment. With over 2,500 sedation procedures successfully completed, I am confident that this technique offers a comfortable and stress-free option for patients and practices. I strongly feel that there is a significant potential gain for a practice offering this service. I also run CPD verified courses in sedation for the whole dental team and a mentoring service for those who wish to undertake one-to-one training to build confidence through support.

How to referShould our sedation or mentoring services be of interest to you, please contact Jane Strand at Mellow on 07713 562702 / jane@mellowdental.co.uk or visit our website www.mellowdental.co.uk to fill in a referral form in the ‘For Dentists’ section.
