Types of Anesthesia
At Dental Implants & Oral Surgery of Longmont, we offer various anesthesia options to ensure our patients’ comfort and safety during surgery. Your oral surgeon will select the best anesthesia for your procedure by considering your medical history, personal preferences, and specific treatment plan.
There are four common types of anesthesia:
Local Anesthesia
Local anesthesia numbs the specific area where surgery is performed, allowing the patient to stay awake without feeling pain in the targeted area.
Nitrous Oxide
Commonly known as laughing gas, nitrous oxide is inhaled through a mask, helping patients stay calm and relaxed throughout the procedure.
Intravenous (IV) Sedation
Administered directly into a vein, IV sedation induces a deeply relaxed, sleep-like state, helping patients feel comfortable during their surgery.
General Anesthesia
Reserved for more complex or extensive surgeries, general anesthesia is typically performed in a hospital or surgery center setting to ensure comprehensive care.
