Currently, the Loving Smiles Foundation Limited is operating two dental clinic facilities for those with special needs. We aim at removing the barriers of access to quality dental care for them. They are both physically accessible with a hoist to facilitate the transfer of immobile patients to the dental chair. And one of the clinics has an accessible toilet.
We recognise that some special care patients have difficulty coping with dental treatment. We have provided the following facilities to help them.
Relative Analgesia (Nitrous Oxide Sedation)
We have equipped to provide nitrous oxide sedation to anxious patients who want to cooperate for dental treatment. Nitrous oxide is inhaled to make the patient feel relaxed to accept the dental treatment.
Conscious Sedation
We provide conscious sedation in oral, intranasal and intravenous modes of administration for special care patients who have difficulty in coping with the challenge of dental treatment. They become dopy but remain conscious with all natural reflexes maintained active during the procedure.
Deep Sedation – Monitored Anaesthetic Care (MAC)
Starting from September 2021, upon the issuance of the Day Procedure Centre Licence, we could perform deep sedation in our Loving Smiles Special Care Dental Centre Vera Ruttonjee Desai Elderly Clinic”. The patient is put into shallow sleep during the dental treatment.
General Anaesthesia
We work in partnership with the Evangel Hospital (since 2014) to provide dental service under general anaesthesia for those who are unable to cooperate for dental treatment or those who need better medical support during dental treatment. The patients are anaesthetised in deep sleep with the airway protected during the dental treatment.
