Dental anxiety

Sedation & general anaesthesia

Some treatments and surgical procedures take a long time and can be stressful for patients.

In such cases, it can make sense to carry out the treatment under general anaesthesia, during which you are fully unconscious, or under sedation, a relaxed and drowsy state. For people with severe dental anxiety, this can also make necessary treatment possible in individual cases. At our practice, general anaesthesia and sedation are administered by specialist anaesthetists, who monitor you continuously throughout, while we carry out the dental treatment. If you have any concerns before your treatment, please talk to us.

Procedure and duration

The steps, duration and aftercare depend on what we find during your examination. We go through them with you in detail beforehand. Call us – we take the time to talk it through.
