Welcome to Manchester Sedation Course

Manchester Sedation Course started in 2015 and became accredited with Intercollegiate Advisory Committee for Sedation in Dentistry (IACSD) in March 2016. Manchester Sedation Course was re-accredited in January 2025 for a further three years. Since running the course, we have trained hundreds of dentists and dental care professionals in IV sedation with midazolam. We have received wonderful feedback from our delegates, and we have enjoyed every minute of it.

Testimonials

“I am a restorative and implant dentist practicing in Yorkshire. I did my sedation training in 2017 with Manchester Sedation Course. I chose Manchester Sedation Course after a lot of research as it fitted my work routine well. Nassar was a fantastic teacher and I felt very confident to get started as soon as I completed my 20 cases with him. Truly grateful.”
