Anesthesia

PAIN-FREE DENTAL TREATMENTS WITH ANESTHESIA

Fear of dental treatments is widespread. Studies show that approximately 1/3 of patients suffer from moderate anxiety, and more than 10% even show panic symptoms. This usually leads to avoidance of the situation, meaning necessary regular appointments with the dentist are not kept. This usually results in a deterioration of the dental situation.

To the dentist without fear

Painful dental treatments are a thing of the past. Nevertheless, many patients still struggle with fears. The treatments are absolutely pain-free for you – modern dentistry makes this possible. When one speaks of anesthesia, one means a sleep-like state in which the patient is put by means of anesthetic agents through inhalation into the lungs or by injection into the bloodstream. Even after an operation, no pain occurs that cannot be controlled with common medications. For anxious patients and children, nitrous oxide sedation is possible, which guarantees a pain-free procedure. All dental and surgical procedures can be performed under sedation (twilight sleep or partial anesthesia) as well as outpatient general anesthesia. The decision depends on the specific situation and your own wishes.
