Who, when and why is anaesthesia dentistry good for?
Many patients are afraid of dentists. Yet most are completely relaxed as soon as they enter our cosy downtown office and meet our friendly, knowledgeable staff. For them, our innovative and painless laser dentistry treatments are the perfect solution. Of course, we also think of our patients who have a fear of dental treatments due to childhood fears, panic disorder, nausea caused by increased garatreflex or other reasons.For them, we offer a reliable, predictable and 100% memory-free solution anaesthetic dentistry, which may be used for major oral surgery. These include dental implants, sinus elevation, and removal of cysts or large areas of inflammation.
Anaesthetic dentistry can also be an option for tooth extraction: when 4 wisdom teeth are removed at the same time, anaesthesia (as opposed to local anaesthesia) may be recommended even for people who are not afraid of dental treatments. In fact, our experienced dentists can do much more work during anaesthesia than with traditional anaesthesia.
This is how to attend a sedation treatment!
Although we will carry out a comprehensive assessment at your first appointment and prepare you thoroughly for everything you need to know for a successful anaesthetic treatment, you will find the most important information here too:
- You should not drink for 3 hours before the procedure and eat 6 hours before the treatment. (This is necessary because the swallowing or coughing reflex does not work during anaesthesia, so there is a risk that the contents of the stomach may be thrown down the throat.)
- You should tell your anaesthetist beforehand if you are taking any medicines regularly. (You will be advised on how to take them according to the instructions of your anaesthetist.)
- Because you may need support after the intervention - due to the feeling of drowsiness, Ask a close relative or friend to accompany you to the treatment.! (Important: driving a car is forbidden for 24 hours following the procedure.)
You sleep, we work - The anaesthetic dental treatment process
- The dental anaesthetist (anaesthesiologist) will review the findings of the preliminary examination.
- After a physical examination, and after your questions have been answered, anaesthetic dentistry treatment begins.
- Anaesthesia is administered by a consultant anaesthetist and an anaesthetic assistant. Once you are comfortably positioned, our specialists will monitor your condition throughout the procedure using ECG electrodes placed on your chest and a pulse oximeter clip on your fingertip.
- After a tiny intravenous puncture, an anaesthetic infusion is hooked up and the anaesthetist places a mask containing pure oxygen in your mouth.
You fall into a deep sleep. You will not feel any discomfort during the anaesthesia, thanks to the painkillers given intravenously. - Our experienced dentist will perform the complete procedure you need. Based on the monitoring, you will spend as much time in our comfortable care until full awakening, until all the parameters of the remission protocol are met.
You regain your consciousness and the natural beauty and health of your teeth.
Preventative examinations are necessary for dental treatments under anaesthetic! During the consultation, you will receive a full answer to all your questions from our trained specialists, from the reasons for exclusion to what needs to be done and possible side effects.
We welcome you to our comfortable practice in the city centre.
