General Anaesthesia

Sleep Through Your Dental Visit with General Anaesthesia

Picture this: You walk into the dental clinic, feeling a little nervous about the procedure ahead. But before you know it, you’re comfortably asleep, and when you wake up, it’s all over—no pain, no stress, just results.

That’s the beauty of general anaesthesia.

It’s designed for those who want to skip the anxiety and discomfort, letting you rest easy while we take care of everything.

Perfect for complex procedures or if you just want a completely stress-free experience.

What is General Anaesthesia?

General anaesthesia isn’t just about numbing a tooth or two; it’s about giving you the peace of mind to completely relax, knowing that you won’t feel or remember a thing.

Unlike local anaesthesia, which keeps you awake, general anaesthesia puts you into a deep, controlled sleep, allowing even the most complex dental procedures to be performed without any discomfort. Administered by our experienced anaesthetists, this method ensures that you wake up with the work done and no memory of the procedure.

Before proceeding with general anaesthesia, we take every precaution to ensure it’s the best and safest option for you. Our process begins with a thorough evaluation of your medical history and current health status. We’ll get to know you pretty well—maybe even better than your best friend—because understanding your body’s needs is essential.

But don’t worry, it’s all for a good reason! We’ll conduct a series of tests and assessments to make sure you’re a suitable candidate for this type of sedation. Our priority is your safety and comfort, so every step is meticulously planned and monitored by our experienced team, giving you the confidence that you’re in expert hands from start to finish.

Problems this treatment solves

Let’s face it—dental visits can be stressful. But what if you didn’t have to worry about feeling anything or even staying awake? General anaesthesia is the answer for:

  • Severe Dental Anxiety: No more white-knuckling it through your appointment. With general anaesthesia, you won’t even remember being in the chair.
  • Complex Procedures: Full-mouth restorations, multiple implants, extractions—get it all done in one go, with zero discomfort.
  • Low Pain Threshold: If even a minor procedure makes you wince, this option lets you sail through without any sensation of pain.
  • Difficulty Staying Still: Some procedures require long periods of stillness. General anaesthesia ensures you’re completely relaxed, making it easier for us to do our best work.

How Is It Done?

Here’s how we make sure your experience with general anaesthesia is as smooth as possible:

  1. Consultation and Assessment: First, we chat. We’ll dive into your medical history and discuss any concerns you have. This helps us ensure general anaesthesia is the best fit for your needs.
  2. Preparation: On the day of your procedure, you’ll meet with our anaesthetist, who will walk you through the process. You’ll need to follow some simple guidelines, like fasting for a few hours before the procedure.
  3. Administration: The anaesthesia is administered through an IV, and within moments, you’ll drift off into a deep sleep. From here, our team takes over.
  4. Monitoring: While you’re comfortably asleep, we keep a close eye on your vital signs—heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels—to ensure everything is going smoothly
  5. Recovery: Once the procedure is done, you’ll gradually wake up in our recovery area. We’ll monitor you until you’re fully awake and ready to head home, with all the aftercare instructions you need.

Our thorough procedure ensures a safe, efficient and comfortable experience for you.

FAQS

How safe is general anaesthesia in a dental setting?

Safety is our top priority. General anaesthesia is administered by a qualified anaesthetist using state-of-the-art monitoring equipment. We conduct a thorough assessment beforehand to ensure it’s the right option for you, minimising any risks.

What should I do to prepare for general anaesthesia?

Preparation is straightforward. We’ll guide you on fasting before the procedure and other simple steps to ensure everything goes smoothly.

You’ll also need someone to drive you home afterward since you’ll still be under the effects of the anaesthesia.

What’s the recovery process like after general anaesthesia?

After waking up, you might feel a bit groggy, but that’s normal. This usually wears off in a few hours. Our team will monitor you in the recovery area until you’re fully awake and stable, and we’ll provide clear aftercare instructions to help you recover comfortably at home.
