Conscious Sedation or Sleep Dentistry
What is sedation and general anesthesia?
Certain complex procedures, anxious patients, and children require a more controlled and deeper level of sedation and anesthesia.
The degree of anesthesia in such cases can vary between moderate-deep sedation and general anesthesia. Deep sedation reduces consciousness,
pain and anxiety while maintaining the patient's ability to respond to commands. On the other hand, general anesthesia provids a temporary loss of consciousness which may be necessary in certain cases.
Dr. Dashty is exceptionally well trained at providing all levels of anesthesia so that your dentist can fully focus on your oral sirgical procedure. This allows for a safer, more predictable and
comfortable experience for both the patient and the dentist.

What happens during surgery?
Your anesthesiologis, Dr. Dashty, is responsible for your comfort and well-being and will continuously monitor you response to anesthesia and surgery. Monitoring devices will be attached, such as blood pressure cuff, an EKG,
and pulse oximetry finger probe to monitor you oxygen level and several others for different parameters. Eyes and all pressure points will be protected, and the patient's body temperature is maintained within normal ranges at all times. For children, the mother
and father can stay with their child until the child is comfortable and ready for his/her procedure.
