Treatment under a general anesthetic is carried out in a hospital setting by the dentist Dr. Farshad and anesthesiologist Dr. Michael Chow. General anesthesia involves patients being ‘fully asleep’. Some possible side effects include nausea and a longer recovery time than other forms of sedation. Under general anesthesia, you don’t feel pain because you’re completely unconscious.
General anesthesia produces a more profound experience that usually leaves no memory of the actual procedure. It’s typically used for more intensive procedures like tooth extraction, dental implants, or other surgical procedures and the patient is unconscious during the process.
Benefits of General Anesthesia
General anesthesia is overall very safe; most people, even those with significant health conditions, are able to undergo general anesthesia itself without serious problems.
