Twilight Sedation Dental Surgery – Safe, Gentle and Stress-Free

Many patients in England suffer from dental phobia or fear of going to the dentist. People affected by this often avoid dental appointments, which can lead to tooth loss and serious oral health problems. But even anxious patients need dental treatment. Thanks to twilight sedation, this is now possible in a completely stress-free and relaxed way.

Unlike general anaesthesia, you remain conscious and do not experience the feeling of losing control — something many patients wish to avoid. If you require sedation due to dental anxiety but still want to retain a sense of control, analgosedationis the ideal choice.

What Is Twilight Sedation in Dental Surgery?

At Fly2Smile, we want our patients to feel completely comfortable throughout their treatment. With analgosedation, we guarantee a pain-free and anxiety-free experience — particularly for patients who struggle with dental fear.

In medical terms, twilight sedation is called analgosedation. The word describes the targeted reduction of pain during a procedure and is composed of:

Analgesics (pain relief medication)

Sedatives (sleep and calming medication)

A sedative ensures that the treatment is carried out in a calm and relaxed state. Analgosedation places you in a deep state of relaxation where you feel no pain.
 Unlike general anaesthesia, you can still respond to instructions, but you typically have no memory of the procedure afterwards.

This form of sedation is mainly used for:

Patients with severe dental anxiety

Long or complex treatments

Individuals with physical or psychological impairments

When Is Twilight Sedation Useful?

Twilight sedation is particularly suitable in the following cases:

For patients with strong fear of dental treatments, as it significantly reduces anxiety and makes the procedure more tolerable.

For complex procedures such as implants, extractions, bone augmentation or dental surgery, improving patient comfort.

For patients with a strong gag reflex, as the reflex is suppressed and the treatment can proceed calmly.

For lengthy sessions, such as full-mouth restoration, where several treatments are carried out in one appointment.

For psychological strain or trauma, where treatment otherwise wouldn’t be possible.

For patients seeking an alternative to general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most patients describe twilight sedation as pleasantly calming and slightly drowsy. The surroundings are only faintly perceived, similar to a dream-like state. You remain responsive but feel little to no pain and usually remember very little afterwards.
During twilight sedation, you remain conscious but perceive your surroundings only in a muted, dream-like way. Pain is significantly reduced or not felt at all, and many patients remember very little — or nothing — of the procedure afterwards. Whether you “notice nothing at all” varies from person to person, but twilight sedation is generally experienced as very pleasant.
Analgosedation is considered safe when performed by a dentist and is carried out under continuous monitoring to ensure your safety. In rare cases, sedation may cause side effects such as dizziness, headaches, nausea or temporary confusion.
The effects of twilight sedation usually wear off shortly after the procedure. However, tiredness and a sense of relaxation can persist for several hours. For this reason, you should take it easy for the rest of the day and avoid driving.
