Do you feel anxious at the thought of going to the dentist? You’re not alone. In fact, dental anxiety is one of the most common reasons people put off treatment. The good news is that if you’re searching for a dentist that offers sedation in London, you’ve come to the right place. At Northfield Dental Clinic in Stamford Hill, we provide safe and effective sedation to help you feel calm, comfortable and fully cared for throughout your treatment.
Sedation dentistry uses medication to help patients relax during dental treatment. It’s sometimes called “sleep dentistry,” although most patients remain awake and simply feel deeply calm.
There are different levels of sedation available:
Oral sedation – a tablet that helps reduce anxiety before treatment.
IV sedation – a stronger form of sedation administered through a vein, which brings a deeper level of relaxation.
Both options are safe, effective, and carried out under the close supervision of experienced dental professionals.
Sedation can be a great option if you:
Feel nervous, anxious or fearful about visiting the dentist
Have had a bad dental experience in the past
Struggle with a sensitive gag reflex
Need multiple treatments in one sitting
Are worried about the sounds or sensations of dental work
It’s also helpful for children or teenagers who may find longer procedures overwhelming.
Why do so many patients choose sedation for their dental care?
No more anxiety – sedation helps you stay calm and relaxed
Pain-free experience – you won’t feel discomfort during treatment
Time feels shorter – longer procedures seem to pass quickly
More treatment in one visit – sedation makes it easier to complete multiple procedures in a single appointment
Faster recovery – most patients feel back to normal soon after their treatment
At Northfield Dental Clinic, we’re proud to serve the community of Stamford Hill and welcome patients from across Hackney, Tottenham, Islington, Camden and the wider London area.

1. Will I be asleep during sedation?
Not usually. Most patients remain awake but feel calm and drowsy, with little memory of the procedure afterwards.
2. Is sedation safe?
Yes. Sedation is a safe and routine procedure when carried out by trained professionals. Your vital signs are monitored throughout.
3. How long does it take to recover?
Most patients feel back to normal within a few hours. We recommend having a friend or family member escort you home if you’ve had IV sedation.
4. Can children have sedation?
Yes, in some cases sedation is an option for children, especially if they are anxious or need longer treatment. Our dentist will advise what’s best for your child.
5. Is sedation available on the NHS?
Sedation is sometimes available through NHS care, but access is limited. At Northfield Dental Clinic we provide private sedation appointments without the long wait.
