Anesthesia
Anesthesia and sedation tailored to your comfort
Several methods of anesthesia are available. The method chosen for or by a patient depends upon the nature of the surgical procedure and the patient's level of apprehension. Dr. Loving and his team will review your health history and help you choose the safest, most comfortable option.
Your anesthesia options
Options range from local anesthetic, where you remain fully conscious, to nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedation and IV sedation for deeper relaxation. For anxious patients and more involved procedures, sedation makes treatment comfortable and stress-free. Your safety is monitored throughout, and you will receive clear instructions for before and after your appointment.
