General anesthesia for complete comfort and safety during dental treatment

Advanced and safe solution for complex and lengthy dental procedures ensuring complete patient comfort and ideal working environment for the doctor with highest safety and monitoring standards

What is General Anesthesia?

  • General anesthesia is a controlled state of unconsciousness where the patient is given special medications that make them sleep deeply and unable to feel any pain during the medical procedure. All vital functions of the patient are continuously monitored during general anesthesia.

  • General anesthesia differs from local anesthesia in that the patient is completely asleep and doesn't feel anything during the procedure, while in local anesthesia the patient is awake but only the anesthetized area doesn't feel pain. General anesthesia is suitable for lengthy or complex procedures or for patients suffering from dental phobia.

  • General anesthesia is performed in our clinic by a qualified specialized anesthesiologist, using the latest medications and medical equipment. We ensure highest safety standards through continuous monitoring of heart function, breathing, blood pressure, and blood oxygen level throughout the procedure duration.
