Who Are We?
Providing Intravenous and Inhalation sedation to dentists, dental nurses, medics and DCPs since 2016
Dental Sedation Courses offer ONLINE quality, readily accessible Conscious Sedation courses and Relevant CPD training to 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 IACSD 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.
