Treatment under anesthesia and analgosedation

Yes, general anaesthesia is completely safe for children when performed by an experienced anaesthetist.
Yes, general anaesthesia is completely safe for children when performed by an experienced anaesthetist. Before every procedure at our clinic, we conduct a thorough pre-operative examination to assess the child's overall health and select the most appropriate anaesthetic procedure.
During general anaesthesia, the child is put into a controlled sleep and remains under the careful supervision of a team of specialists. To ensure maximum safety, we use modern monitoring systems that monitor the child's vital functions throughout the procedure.
General anaesthesia is often used for more demanding dental procedures because it completely eliminates pain and stress. After the procedure, the child remains in a state of rest and recovers under supervision before being safely discharged home. In most cases, children recover quickly and without complications.
