Istanbul Galata University Dental Hospital has a fully equipped operating room where anesthesia and reanimation can be performed. Dental treatments are performed under general anesthesia and IV sedation for patients who cannot be treated under outpatient conditions. For example, a patient may need to be treated under special conditions due to a neurological or psychological disorder. In addition, a physiological disease may also make the patient's mouth unsuitable for treatment. Uncontrollable gag reflex problems and the patient being extremely nervous about the operation can also be cited as among these reasons.
In dental practices, anesthesiologists are trained professionals responsible for ensuring patient comfort and safety by administering appropriate anesthesia. The entire process is carried out by our experienced anesthesiologist. The anesthesiologist examines the physical examination and laboratory results and ensures that the patient is ready for the operation if all conditions are suitable. It is the anesthetist's responsibility to explain the process in detail to the patient before and after the operation and whether the patient can be discharged. If the patient's condition is appropriate, discharge procedures can begin. This specialized branch plays a crucial role in providing complex dental treatments such as oral surgeries or long procedures while maintaining the comfort and safety of the patient.
