Find out what modern dental treatment under general anesthesia looks like and why more and more patients in Warsaw are choosing this method.
What dental procedures do we perform under general anesthesia?
Dental treatment under general anesthesia is a solution for patients who require special care or need to undergo extensive procedures in a short time. During one visit, it is possible to perform many procedures, which significantly shortens the entire treatment process and eliminates the need for multiple visits to the office.
Each procedure is performed by an experienced team of dentists and anesthesiologists who care for the patient’s safety and comfort at every stage of treatment.
01 Tooth extractions
Removal of single, multi-rooted, or impacted teeth, including problematic wisdom teeth, without pain or stress.
02 Cavity treatment
Comprehensive oral health restoration, filling cavities, and tooth reconstruction in conditions of full comfort.
03 Root canal treatment
Endodontics under general anesthesia allows for precise and painless treatment of even several teeth during one session.
04 Surgical procedures
Resections, frenuloplasty, treatment of inflammation, and other procedures requiring longer working time.
05 Dental implants
Placing dental implants in conditions of total loss of consciousness of the patient.
06 Sinus lift and bone regeneration
In a situation where the amount of bone is insufficient for implant placement, we perform bone regeneration procedures and maxillary sinus lift. Thanks to this, even in difficult cases, dental implants can be applied.
07 Treatment of children and people with disabilities
The possibility of performing full oral health restoration in children and in patients with whom contact or cooperation is difficult.
How does dental treatment under anesthesia work in our clinic?
The process of treatment under general anesthesia is carefully planned and consists of several stages that guarantee safety and predictability of effects.
01
Consultation and qualification
The first step is a detailed dental-anesthesiological consultation, during which the patient’s health condition is assessed, necessary tests are performed, and the treatment plan is discussed. The anesthesiologist analyzes the medical history, allergies, and medications taken to exclude contraindications for general anesthesia.
02
Preparation for the procedure
The patient receives detailed preparation instructions – including the need to remain fasting for a specific time before the procedure and restrictions on fluid and medication intake. On the day of the procedure, the patient is admitted to the clinic and prepared by the medical team.
03
Induction of anesthesia
The anesthesiologist administers anesthetic drugs intravenously or by inhalation, constantly monitoring the patient’s vital parameters. Depending on the scope of the procedure, it may be necessary to secure the airway (e.g., via intubation or a laryngeal mask).
04
Performing dental treatment
While the patient is in a deep sleep, the dentist performs the planned procedures – from conservative treatment to endodontics, surgery, and implantology. An anesthesiologist and an anesthetic nurse monitor safety at all times.
05
Awakening and observation
After the procedure, the patient is gradually awakened and remains under the observation of medical staff until full recovery of consciousness. After a few hours, if the health condition is stable, they can leave the clinic accompanied by a caregiver.
06
Post-operative instructions and control
The patient receives detailed recommendations on how to proceed after the procedure and schedules a follow-up visit to evaluate healing and treatment effects.
