Treatment under anesthesia and analgosedation
What is analgosedation?
Analgosedation is a method that combines sedation and analgesia, i.e. calming and pain relief.
Analgosedation is a method that combines sedation and analgesia, i.e. calming and pain relief, during dental or other medical procedures. This method of treatment allows the patient to remain conscious but in a relaxed and pain-free state, which is ideal for patients who are afraid or concerned about pain but do not require full general anaesthesia.
How does analgesic sedation work?
- Preoperative examination: The doctor will examine the patient's health and decide on the appropriate procedure.
- Administration of sedatives: Sedatives are administered intravenously, causing relaxation and calmness, but the patient remains conscious.
- During the procedure: The patient feels no pain and is in a calm state, cooperating with the doctor.
- After the procedure: After the procedure, the patient rests at the clinic and then leaves accompanied by someone to take them home.
Advantages of analgosedation:
- Faster recovery than with general anaesthesia.
- The patient remains conscious, which is suitable for simpler procedures.
- Painless treatment without the need for general anaesthesia.
- Safety and comfort, all under the careful supervision of specialists.
If you are concerned about pain or afraid of dental procedures, analgosedation is a great choice for your comfort and peace of mind.
