Would you not prefer to be relaxed or even asleep for your WISDOM TEETH REMOVAL or other maxillofacial procedures? We offer different types of pain control and sedation. Sedation at our practice is administered and monitored by qualified sedationists and specialist anaesthetists.

PROCEDURAL SEDATION

Oral Sedation:
This type of sedation ranges from minimal to moderate. For minimal sedation, it is just a pill that you need to swallow. It’s taken an hour before the procedure to make you feel very drowsy, yet still awake. For amore moderate sedation, a larger dose will be given to you. A handful of patients become groggy enough from the pill(s) to fall asleep during the procedure but can still easily be woken up with a gentle shrug.

IV Moderate Sedation:
Using an iv drip to pump the drug through your veins, the drug can move very quickly and effectively. We are also able to continuously adjust the level of sedation you need, whether you’d like more or less during the procedure. You will be half awake but very sleepy while using IV sedation.

Deep Sedation & General Anesthesia:
General anesthesia will make you almost unconscious or fully unconscious. This means that you will be in a deep, deep sleep during the procedure. You can’t be easily woken up until the anesthesia effects wear off or a reverse medication is given.

Maintaining good oral hygiene after wisdom teeth removal is crucial for preventing infection, promoting healing, and ensuring a smooth recovery. It involves carefully cleaning the area around the extraction site AND the remaining teeth to keep the mouth clean and free from debris, preventing infection and other complications.

Facial moles are often harmless and may not require treatment. However, you should see a doctor if you notice any changes to a mole, such as bleeding, itching, pain, or a change in color or size.

TREATMENT DURING PREGNANCY

Always inform your maxillofacial surgeon if you are pregnant, and they will likely consult with your obstetrician to determine the safest course of action based on your specific circumstances.

Second trimester is safest:
If surgery is required during pregnancy, the second trimester is generally considered the safest time to undergo the procedure.

Emergency situations:
If you have an emergency requiring immediate treatment while pregnant, your maxillofacial surgeon will assess the situation and may perform necessary procedures to manage the issue.
