Who Are We?
Dental Sedation Training for all of the team
Dental Sedation Courses offer ONLINE (and face to face) quality, readily accessible Conscious Sedation courses and Relevant CPD training for Dentists, DCPs, Dental Nurses and Medics delivered by experienced sedation providers throughout the UK and Ireland.
All courses can be started immediately by applying online on the courses page
We aim to help reduce the barriers to high quality training in order to ensure safe, accessible and affordable conscious sedation can be made available to all patients in primary care.
Our courses follow the latest IACSD guidelines (and updated SDCEP guidelines) and have been fully accredited by either the Sedation training accreditation committee (STAC) via the Royal College of Surgeons or the NEBDN for dental sedation nursing. Our Blended learning course format for all of our courses enables you to complete the entire course from your home and/or dental practice saving expenses and more importantly your time.
All Courses have been split into online theory and skills training followed by mentored supervised practice (with the exception of refresher courses which are usually completed online). We are fortunate to have the availability of mentor centres in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland where dentists, dental nurses, hygienists and therapists are able to complete their mentored cases on patients that we provide; this can be arranged on an individual basis.

Current Training Guidelines/Standards
England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland
In case you are a little unsure as to which guidelines you should be following whether you are in England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland we have summarised the answer here:
The Intercollegiate Advisory Committee for Sedation in Dentistry (IACSD) guidelines came out in April 2015 (UPDATED 2020) with the aim of creating a UK-wide guideline document for conscious sedation in dentistry; this was soon implemented by NHS England and underwent a review process by the Chief Dental officers and assigned bodies in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. (It could not be implemented simultaneously in all countries of the UK as a result of the devolved nature of the health service)
In Scotland the The Scottish Dental Clinical Effectiveness Programme (SDCEP) 2017 sedation guidelines are followed which reflect the IACSD guidelines in almost all aspects and in terms of training guidelines refer directly to the IACSD document. In Wales the IACSD guidelines alongside the SDCEP 2017 guidelines are also followed and training guidelines refer directly to the IACSD document again.
In Northern Ireland as of November 2022 they follow the SDCEP guidelines as above.
