Sedation for Relaxed Dentistry in Stockholm – Feel Calm, Stay in Control
Dental visits do not have to be tense or painful. With sedation for relaxed dentistry in Stockholm, you can receive the care you need while remaining calm, conscious, and completely comfortable. At Gloss & Floss, our experienced team tailors every sedation plan so even the most nervous patient can achieve a healthy smile without fear.
How Sedation Dentistry Works
Gentle medicine, fast effect
We use proven medications such as Stesolid (diazepam) tablets and Midazolam oral solution. These enhance the brain’s calming messenger, creating deep relaxation while you stay awake and able to respond.
Seamless procedure support
A single dose, taken shortly before treatment, reduces anxiety, dampens the gag reflex, and makes lengthy appointments feel much shorter. Local anaesthetic is still applied, so you remain pain-free throughout.
Who Benefits from Dental Sedation?
- Patients with pronounced dental anxiety or past traumatic experiences
- Anyone who feels restless during cleanings, examinations, or root canal treatments
- Those scheduled for longer or surgical procedures, such as dental implants
- Individuals with medical needs, such as epilepsy or alcohol withdrawal, where stress can trigger complications
If you recognise yourself here, sedation dentistry can turn dread into peace of mind.
Safety Is Always Our Priority
Comprehensive assessment
Before prescribing, our dentists review your medical history, current medications, and conditions like myasthenia gravis to ensure the safest approach.
Continuous monitoring
Throughout your visit, we track vital signs and adjust chairside comforts—from pillows to music—so you feel secure every minute.
What to Expect After Your Visit
- A calm, hazy memory of the procedure—most patients recall very little
- Mild drowsiness that fades within a few hours; arrange an escort home
- Simple after-care instructions and a follow-up call to check your well-being
Our goal is a positive experience that motivates lifelong oral health habits. If needed, you can always begin with a dental consultation to discuss your options.
Frequently Asked Questions About Sedation Dentistry
Is dental sedation safe?
Yes. At Gloss & Floss, sedation is prescribed only after a thorough medical review. Vital signs are monitored during the entire procedure for maximum safety.
What does dental sedation feel like?
Most patients describe a deep sense of calm and relaxation. You stay awake, able to respond, but anxiety and discomfort are greatly reduced.
How long does dental sedation last?
The calming effect usually lasts a few hours. You may feel drowsy afterward, which is why we recommend arranging for someone to accompany you home.

Sedation is especially helpful for lengthy treatments like emergency dental care, root canal therapy, implant surgery, or multiple extractions.
