General Anesthesia and Sedation at Elevated Oral Surgery
At Elevated Oral Surgery, your comfort, safety, and overall experience are our utmost concerns. Our highly skilled Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon meets with patients to discuss their needs and concerns, ensuring delivery of personalized, exceptional care.
We understand that the prospect of oral surgery can be unnerving for many. That’s why we offer both general anesthesia and sedation at our facility, which is located in the heart of San Diego, CA. These options are designed to create a pain-free, relaxed experience during your oral surgery, no matter how simple or complex the procedure might be.
Understanding General Anesthesia
General anesthesia induces a state of unconsciousness, providing a level of comfort for patients undergoing major surgeries. Our experienced oral surgeon and dedicated anesthetic team carefully monitor all stages of anesthesia, from the initial administration through the recovery process. We adhere to the highest standards of safety, and every measure is taken to ensure the best surgical outcome.
Unlike local or topical anesthesia, which numbs a specific area of the mouth, general anesthesia affects the whole body. While under general anesthesia, you’ll be entirely unconscious and unaware of the surgery taking place. This form of anesthesia is commonly used for more complex procedures or for those patients who experience a high degree of surgical anxiety.
Sedation Options for Increased Comfort
Sedation is often administered to help patients relax during their procedures at Elevated Oral Surgery. We use intravenous, or IV sedation, one of the most effective type of sedation in oral surgery. Patients remain conscious and are able to respond to verbal commands, but they are in a state of extreme relaxation and often remember very little about the procedure afterwards.
Just as with our general anesthesia, our team of professional sedation experts is carefully monitoring your condition during the entire procedure. Their goal is to maintain your safety and comfort, providing adjustments as necessary and making sure your experience at our Oral Surgery center in San Diego, CA, is as stress-free as possible.
