Sedation dentistry in Irpin
Fear of the dentist should not harm your health. Nitrous oxide sedation brings calm and relaxation during any treatment: You stay conscious, you can talk, and you feel no anxiety or pain.
Sedation is medication-based calming that puts the patient into deep relaxation without full sleep. You hear the doctor and follow simple commands, while anxiety, fear and tension fade away. Treatment time feels much shorter.
At Sorridi we use nitrous oxide sedation (inhalation sedation) — the mildest and safest form of sedation. You breathe a gas mixture through a mask, and a few minutes after the appointment you are back to normal.
Sedation is useful for children afraid of treatment, anxious patients, patients with a strong gag reflex, and during long prosthetic sessions — for example, placing several crowns in one visit. Clinic anesthesiologist Hlib Ovsienko monitors your condition throughout the procedure.
Who is sedation for?
Fear of treatment
Dentophobia, panic fear of the dentist — the most common indication.
Children
Kids who find it hard to sit still for long or refuse treatment.
Gag reflex
A strong gag reflex makes proper treatment impossible — sedation removes it.
Long treatment
Several procedures in one visit: prosthetics, complex endodontics.

FAQ
Is nitrous oxide sedation safe?
Hlib Ovsienko
Anesthesiologist
Yes, nitrous oxide is the mildest and safest form of sedation. The dosage is set individually, and a few minutes after the procedure you are back to normal. You can go home after 5–10 minutes with no restrictions.
Can I drive after sedation?
Hlib Ovsienko

Nitrous oxide can be used from the age of 4. For the youngest patients with special needs, the anesthesiologist will consider other options after the examination.

Hlib Ovsienko
Anesthesiologist
A light meal 2 hours before the visit is fine; water is allowed. Tell the anesthesiologist about medications, allergies and chronic conditions. It is a regular, painless conversation.
Patient reviews
“I booked an appointment at the clinic to have my wisdom teeth removed. I was very anxious about the procedure, but Dr Liliia did everything as professionally as possible. She explained everything clearly and gave recommendations. The teeth were removed absolutely painlessly and quickly. I also had root canal treatment with Kateryna Valeriivna — a very pleasant doctor, everything went as comfortably as possible. So I sincerely recommend the clinic and the professionals who work here.”
