What is Intravenous (IV) Sedation?

Intravenous sedation is sometimes referred to as twilight sedation or sleep dentistry and is becoming increasingly popular with both patients and dentists
IV sedation is an extremely efficient way of reducing all the anxiety surrounding an upcoming dental appointment and helping to control any post operative pain or swelling
It is a specialised, highly safe procedure that can be carried out within your existing dental practice without the need to visit a local hospital
IV sedation produces a dream like state in which patients often sleep throughout the appointment waking up with little or no memory of the procedure and experiencing no pain

Ian is very professional, kind and patient!

00:54 05 Apr 24

Professional and caring. Went the extra mile to ensure success. Has the latest and greatest equipment to make the entire dental experience safe, painless and enjoyable. Never thought I’d describe a dental experience as enjoyable but it was.

I had a great experience at Mosman Dental Surgery with my wisdom tooth extraction.It was easy to organise the appointment, a central and easy-to-get-to location in Mosman, and the extraction itself went perfectly and healed quickly and comfortably

Excellent Service! Advanced and Healthy Dental Services

Incredible experience with Dr Ian. I had an impacted wisdom tooth that has been bothering me for years and the surgery managed to fit me in straight away. The care before, during and after has been amazing. Finally a dentist that has not left me dreading my next appointment.

09:42 15 Dec 23

I've been to dental clinics in different countries, I'm so glad I stumbled in just to check the price.They were so accommodating, they even stayed after hours just because I couldn't make it due to my work.They are very professional and I highly recommend Mosman Dental Surgery

01:26 15 Dec 23

Ian is an extremely professional and approachable Dentist. His practice is a calm place to be, for what a dental surgery could be. Decorated with local artists artwork, spacious and welcoming. He has high tech equipment on site, saving time, for me this enabled him to quickly and accurately identify a key issue that left untreated woukd have been an issue.He also supports local businesses within his supply chain, I like that.Highly recommend him.

04:34 12 Dec 23

I have been so impressed by my two visits over the last week with Ian (I admit I needed a filling!). I had wanted to find a new dentist with a friendly bedside manner as it was my 3 year old daughter’s first dentist appointment - and it was important that we create the best possible experience. We were not disappointed- Ian has two young children himself so straight away he made my daughter feel comfortable. I was also so impressed by the relaxed and friendly vibe of the practice. Love how he has a separate ‘consult’ room to chat in after he assesses and cleans teeth so you can have a more comfortable, natural conversation rather than still lying in a chair! I found it strange that my last dentist would only assess my teeth for 60 seconds, and leave the rest to his hygienist. Nothing like that here - it’s personal service. I would highly recommend Ian to adults and children alike.

05:36 17 Nov 23

Dr Hedley was welcoming from the first moment. I was comfortable and never rushed. He explained his process so clearly, including my photos and xrays. So now there's a plan for minor fixes and there's no fear or stress!As I've recently moved to Mosman, I had done some research and I'm very happy with my choice.Thank you.

09:25 16 Nov 23

In from overseas and had an emergency dental mishap that Dr Hedley saw to. He was very efficient and professional, gave great advice on the situation. I can’t recommend him highly enough!

Just went to the mosman dentalSurgery and it was fantastic! Hands down the best dentalExperience in my life! The technology is state of the art. The office is peaceful and spacious and there is a tv on the ceiling. Absolutely fantastic. I am actually looking forward to my next visit in Dec for my filling!! You must go to this dentist for your next appointment!

01:35 02 Nov 23

Getting a dental review from Dr Ian Hedley was phenomenal. Thanks again for all the insight. I can feel a different level of awareness and much more confident with my oral needs 🙏🏼

00:48 21 Oct 23

I found Doctor Ian Hedley to be extremely efficient, professional and with an easy friendly personality. His surgery offers the latest in equipment and comfort. Highly recommended.

07:01 28 Jul 23

Had my first visit to see Dr Ian Hedley today and was thoroughly impressed. From the minute I was in the rooms, I was impressed by the cleanliness and professionalism of the practice. We went through a thorough consultation with a number of x-rays and photos and we were able to work out a comprehensive future plan. Made for a very pleasant experience. Dr Ian Hedley is highly recommended.

11:49 29 Jun 23

Dr Ian Hedley is an excellent Dentist. After meeting him at his previous practice in Oatley, we’ve followed him across Sydney to his own, new space in Mosman. From Dr Ian you can expect a careful attention to detail, beautifully finished dentistry work, and quality sourced materials in use at the practice. We wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Definitely, patient care is a priority to Dr. Ian! He assessed my case thoroughly and he gave me the right necessary treatment plus checking on how my surgery wound going even on a weekend. He doesnt make you feel intimidated as well.Thank you! 😃

07:52 07 Apr 23

I can only add to the many positive reviews already posted in praise of Dr Ian Hedley. My wife was in a terrible state before we met Dr Hedley. After having teeth implants completed in Central Europe in 2019, she found the bridge between them had compacted and was forming a barrier to access and clear an infection behind it. What's more, we were due to fly back to see her relatives in less than 2 months. To correct such a painful journey seemed impossible to us. Dr Hedley calmly assessed the situation, and explained in detail how he could dismantle the existing bridge, clear the infection and either amend the original bridge or replace it with a temporary bridge to hold things together for her journey overseas. This proved to be just as Dr Hedley's website states. Due to his vast experience, he's a Dentist who is ready to meet a challenge. During a 3-hour session, while keeping his patient comfortable, Ian Hedley achieved success! We are both forever grateful for his dedication and skills.

09:17 03 Apr 23

Friendly people. Fantastic service!!

01:22 18 Jan 23

I found Dr Ian Hedley and his team extremely friendly and professional. Ian was very informative and took the time to explain everything with regards to my treatment. I am very happy with my visit and will definitely be returning in future.

23:16 21 Dec 22

What a find. Dr Ian has just bought the practice and I was referred his way. Amazing set up and wonderful team that made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. Highly recommend and now happy to know I have a regular dentist

Nick listens and provide his opinion and options professionally and treat me very personal for every dental procedure and treatments over the last 9 years. Nick adjusted his timing and attended several urgent appointments and surgery for my benefit and the outcome is always for my good. Nick is certainly the best dentist in Sydney and the most value for money dentist in Northern Beaches. It is a great pleasure to have Nick maintaining my front bridge over that last 9 years and now with his advise and professional suggestions with detail plan, I am progressing with my implant dentistry procedure. The journey has been great and can't wait for the finished work.

Nick is the best dentist in Sydney. He is very relaxed and easy to talk to. I highly recommend the practise.

Dr. Nick is a true professional at what he does. I highly recommend Totally Smiles Mosman. The staff were all friendly and its the perfect environment for a relaxing experience.

It's refreshing to find a dentist that is honest and not selling you a full dental plan that is not required. I am rewarded with simply easy dentistry that I understand and clear information as to what I do and don't need. I highly recommend Nick and his team.

Just left Dr Nicks trusty care with a perfect smile for the first time in my life. Nick is considerate, kind and patient at all times and I recommend him to everyone. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel from Ryde to see him. Thanks for everything Nick!

Dr. Nick and his team are simply the BEST.I have been going to dentist for over 20 year now and have horrid memories.Nick from Day 1 has been very patient and clam which helped me a lot (I have zero tolerance for pain)I had a chipped front tooth and not the best cap fixed by another dentist, which caused an infection over time.Although I wanted a quick fix, Nick assured me the long-term benefits in correcting it properly and his advice paid off. I now have a corrected cap and a great smile with other minor issues fixed.I am extremely grateful to Nick and the team for being patient, painless and for all amazing work they do.If you want someone who will tell it like it is, I highly recommend Dr. Nick

08:40 27 May 18

Nick and the team are amazing. I have recently had my front tooth removed and replaced with an implant and could not be happier. After many years of bad experiences with different dentists, I can confidently say I have found a dentist who truly cares for my oral health and general well-being. I would highly recommend for anyone who is a little anxious about going to the dentist. He is also a master at implanting and extremely gentle - I experienced little to no pain through my whole implant process.Thanks Dr Nick and team.

03:36 29 Apr 18

Dr Nick is an incredible dentist. He is friendly, personable and very gentle and caring during his work. I could not be happier with my results and have recommended my friends and family to him also.

21:28 08 Mar 18

I’ve been seeing Dr Andrei for almost a year, and he had changed my life. I’ve been through every situation you can possibly imagine, having had horrible bridge work done from overseas for three teeth right at the front of my mouth! Dr Andrei is always prioritising my health, reviewing my case regularly and recommending me to the best specialists in Sydney.Dr Andrei is genuinely a fantastic person. He called me regularly when I was having surgeries to check how my progress was tracking alone, and was always one text away when I had any questions (even when it was very late at night). I’ve dealt with numerous dentists in the past and the level of service I receive from Dr Andrei far exceeds anyone else.If you’re looking to have major dental work and are sick of searching for someone that can actually help (I’ve been there before), reach out to Dr Andrei and I can guarantee you’ll not regret the decision. I followed him all the way from Parramatta where he was previously working, and it’s a decision I won’t regret.Dr Andrei - thank you for continuing to put effort into my case, and helping me get one step closer to achieving the perfect smile.

11:24 29 Nov 17

I called up Dr Nick at 1am extremely anxious after I chipped my tooth. After he calmed me down and diagnosed that I wasn't in any immediate danger of losing my tooth, he booked me in for an appointment at 7:30am.Dr Nick was quick, painless, priced fairly and cosmetically, you wouldn't be able to tell I chipped my tooth.Above and beyond customer service and a great guy to boot, 10/10.

Doctor Nikhil and his team are very professional and made me comfortable the moment I entered the surgery for my appointment. I have been avoiding a visit to dentist due to fear of unknown. Doctor Nikhil identified my fear and ensured that he made me comfortable all along the procedure. His procedure spoke volumes of the years of experience and expertise. He kept checking on me all along to ensure I was comfortable. Professional team, state of art surgery and a very expierenced doctor and team is what it takes to be the best and I truly experienced it today. Thank you!

11:32 17 Oct 17

I have been looking for a good dentist for a while, shopping around to get a good quality implant at a reasonable price. It was really hard to find the right solution. A lot of other dentists seemed very overpriced, some even arrogant and showing little interest. Then I finally met Nick. Not only is he highly professional and accurate in his work and in the way he explained everything; he also really cares about people, which truly is a valuable, albeit rare thing nowadays. For anyone looking for the right dentist, I highly recommend having a chat with Nick and see it for yourself.

Dr Nick has exactly what you want from a dentist- kind, caring, innovative and smart. Lovely rooms that have a great feel for even the most nervous patient.

My teeth & gums feel & look healthier. Friendly service, all the staff make you feel very comfortable and good, sound advice from Dr Kulkarni. Great experience.

06:54 29 Jan 17

Dr Nick Kulkarni and his team are a high calibre of professionals offering a comprehensive state of the art service. My tooth had shattered to a point where I required a difficult crown on top of an old root canal. DR Kulkarni was able to offer me a service I could not find anywhere else in Sydney, they were able to repair my tooth on-site in one consultation. This saved me hundreds of dollars avoiding multiply visits as other practices had quoted.My experience was extremely pleasant, relaxed, and not rushed. I was shown photos of my teeth to see the state they were in and Dr Kulkarni took then took the time to explain all the options to me before proceeding. I was even taken through and shown the process as my new tooth was made on-site, truly an impressive practice.Dr Kulkarni is extremely personable and I felt I was in good hands from the moment I arrived, during the procedure, and the advice given to me post implant. I cannot recommend Dr Kulkarni and his team highly enough, you will not be disappointed.

05:56 02 Jan 17

Very good Experience

I can't recommend Dr Nick highly enough! I needed a crown for a molar with a pretty big decay. He took the process step-by-step before recommending the best solution. He was very pedagogue throughout the whole process and made sure I understood the pros and cons for me to make my decision. Thanks to his knowledge and his state of the art equipment, I could avoid a root canal treatment and he was able to treat me completely in 1 session (designing and making the crown in his practice). Another dentist in Mosman put down a 5 sessions procedure quote to treat that same tooth... Nick and his team are very caring people and made sure to make me feel confortable the whole time. The whole experience was stress and pain free. I am so happy that I have found Nick and will never use another dentist in Sydney! Thanks again Dr Nick!

00:27 24 Oct 16

Dr Nick was recommended to me by a friend who is a dental technician as I was having problems with a bridge for my front teeth and infection of the roots. Nick explained very thoroughly the three options available to me and I chose to have implants. This involved extraction of the roots and further major dental surgery. At no point did I have any pain either during or after the procedure. His follow up and availability following the procedure was second to none. His surgery is state of the art and is a relaxing environment. He is a true professional

08:54 16 Jun 16

As someone who is generally uncomfortable visiting the dentist, I can highly recommend Mosman Dental Surgery. I found the procedure to be painless and high quality. Amd, Dr Nick goes above and beyond, fitting my son in for an x-ray and check up when he received a knee to the chin during a rugby game. Not only did he find a hairline fracture but also eased the pain by immediately treating a tooth that had been displaced, aiding quicker recovery.

01:26 13 Jun 16

I've never walked out of a dental appointment thinking "that was actually pretty good!" - until I met Dr. Nik.After not having been to the dentist in many years, but taking care of my teeth, I was curious as to whether I would get the hard sell from Nik. Not at all, he mentioned my teeth were in great shape and I was doing a good job - just a general clean was necessary.I also subsequently visited for some cosmetic work (I have a baby tooth that never had it's adult version show up) that made my smile look completely natural.He has also taken care of my fiancee, and she was very happy with his services.Thanks Dr. Nik!

23:08 19 Mar 16

Dr Nick is an outstanding practitioner. I recently had two wisdom teeth extracted in the chair, and what could have been a harrowing experience was virtually painless. Rather than rushing through the procedure to get to his next patient, he took his time to do it right, thus avoiding any unnecessary swelling. 10 years ago I had my other two wisdom teeth out - also in the chair - so I can say from experience that it can be quite horrible. With Dr Nick, even the injections of anaesthetic were painless. He's a lovely guy who makes you feel comfortable as soon as you meet him - something very important when at the dentist! Thanks, Dr Nick :)

A last minute booking for an emergencyDr Nik was friendly - professional and very caring so Pain free always a plus . The practice is very well run and so clean and surprisingly silent for its location that bring a peacefulness vibe . I highly recommend it

08:25 17 Jan 16

Wonderful practise with friendly, professional and caring staff with state of the art equipment. They worked way past the normal end of day becuase of me and I felt comfortable because they were. They worked their magic on my broken filling and another tooth that needed attention. A small chip on my front tooth was rescued and looks balanced with the other teeth now, very clever dentist and he didn't charge me for that. I will return for a 6 monthly check and send my daughter in soon too, I have recommended this real Northen Beaches find to many people already and I work in high people traffic job.

00:08 19 Nov 15

Highly recommend!! Lovely staff and very patient. I was petrified of the dentist and they have helped me overcome that, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

06:21 11 Aug 15

I would never use another dentist. Took me years to find Nick. I would highly recommend The Mosman Dental Surgery to all. Well worth a phone call and check up.

01:11 02 Dec 14

I've been going to Mosman Dental Surgery Clinic for over 3 years, always treated really well, always happy with the professional service provided and the team is amazing! Dr. Nick and the dental nurse Pamela make you feel comfortable and are very friendly. Strongly recommended! :)

Doctor Nick is very gentle and patient. His style compared to the many other dentists I have used over the year's, is completely different in such a nice way. I had a filling on Friday and I received a call from him on Saturday morning to check how it felt. This service is rare to find and I want to thank Dr Nick for this.

I saw Nick (the new owner of "The Mosman Dental Surgery") earlier today and I can say with great confidence that he is extremely switched on and knows what he is doing. He has worked internationally and has a great wealth of knowledge. As someone who takes a proactive interest in their dental health and hygiene, I cannot recommend him enough!
