Can I have my teeth done under general anaesthesia?
General anaesthesia at the dentist can be used for almost all dental procedures. It is particularly recommended if the treatment is lengthy, complex or painful, but also if you do not tolerate the pain well.
Types of Dental Anesthesia
Local Anesthesia: This is the most common type, numbing the area around the tooth. It’s extremely safe with minimal risks, usually involving temporary numbness or tingling.
Sedation: This involves medications to make you relaxed and drowsy. It’s generally safe for healthy individuals but can have higher risks for people with certain medical conditions.
Semi-anesthesia: With semi-anesthesia, the patient breathes and swallows independently. This makes it easier for us to work in the oral cavity. The patient does not remember anything about the procedure and
What kind of anaesthesia is used in dentistry?
Our dental clinics use semi-anesthesia. The anaesthesia is administered by an anesthesiologist.
Is dentist anaesthesia safe?
Dental anaesthesia is generally very safe when administered by a qualified professional and when appropriate precautions are taken. Millions of dental procedures are performed each year safely with the help of anaesthesia.
How do you prepare for dental anaesthesia?
We will need you to fill out a medical history form that you should e-mail us. If you have indicated to us that you would like to have your treatment under full dental anaesthesia, we will send you the necessary medical history form by e-mail. After that, the anaesthetist will decide which examinations must be carried out and whether you are allowed to have dental anaesthesia. The examinations can be carried out either in your home country (this has the advantage that the majority of the possible reasons that could be against anaesthesia will be discovered before the trip) or in Hungary with us (this will lengthen your treatment time by 1-2 days).
In the presence of certain diseases, dental anaesthesia involves too many risk factors. These include diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, diseases of the nervous system, some allergies, asthma and immunocompromised conditions.
How does it work? Dental anaesthesia step-by-step
1. After the doctor who carries out the examinations has stated that everything is ok with you and has provided you with preliminary advice (e.g. medication), you show up to the appointment at your clinic in Hungary with your own personal assistant.
2. Yor outerwear should be a short-sleeved shirt, t-shirt or a blouse. Ladies can keep their bra on, but must not wear any make-up and must remove the nail polish from their left index finger.
3. It is important that you do not eat for eight hours and do not to take any fluids for six hours prior to the procedure. You should avoid (or at least reduce) smoking for 24 hours before the procedure. If you have to take medications prescribed by the anaesthetist, take them with a little water. Suppose you experience symptoms of a cold, fever or diarrhea immediately before surgery. In that case, you must inform the anesthesiologist at once, because these symptoms could be life-threatening whilst under dental anesthesia. In this case the anesthesia cannot be carried out in your interest and you will have to postpone the appointment.
4. Upon your arrival at the clinic our specialist will examine you and discuss the information on the previously provided medical history form with you. Should the doctor notice any health changes which may have an increased risk for you, he can postpone the anaesthesia before the procedure, request more examinations or even cancel the anesthesia permanently.
After the anesthesiologist has answered all your possible questions, you sign the anaesthesia consent form. If you do not sign it, we are not allowed to perform dental anaesthesia.
In each case, our specialists are an anesthesiologist and an anesthesiologist assistant. This is the statutory criterion for safe dental anaesthesia.
5. After you have made yourself comfortable in the dental chair, our specialists will mount the observational devices on you: ECG monitor, oxygen state controller, finger clip, and blood pressure monitor.
6. They will insert a vein cannula in your left arm (the only unpleasant moment before anaesthesia), through which the anaesthetic will be pumped during the procedure.
7. The anaesthetist holds a transparent facial mask on your face, through which he secures oxygen.
8. At the same time, the anaesthetist assistant injects the anaesthetic through the vein cannula.
9. Once you are completely asleep and unconscious, the medication will turn off the muscle functions for a short time, and the anaesthetist inserts a breathing tube into your trachea and fixes it.
10. After ensuring the tube is in the correct position, they will connect it to the anaesthesia machine. After everything has been thoroughly checked, the dental procedure can begin.
Throughout the duration of the dental treatment you are in an unconscious sleep, but in an artificially preserved state. You may feel and realize nothing. When the dental procedure is completed, the specialists wake you up and remove the breathing tube before you are fully back to consciousness. Thanks to modern drugs, you can be fully awake in no time. The anaesthetist and assistant monitor the full awakening until it meets the requirements of the decree protocol. You get a full explanation of what to do after the dental anaesthesia. You receive the instructions and, if necessary, also the prescription of the medications.
How long does a dental anaesthetic last?
The semi-anesthesia we use usually lasts 1-3 hours, but the duration can vary, as many factors influence it. Your metabolism, weight, and general health can affect how your body processes the anaesthetic. Different anaesthetic drugs have different durations of action. For your complete safety, we ask that you always come with a companion for the dental treatment performed under anaesthesia.
Dental anaesthesia side effects
Although rare, some people may experience temporary side effects such as dizziness, headache, or muscle twitching. If you have any concerns about the duration of anaesthesia or experience any unusual side effects, please do not hesitate to contact our dentist.
How much does anaesthesia cost?
A semi-anesthesia costs 500 $ in our clinics.
