Sedation and anaesthesia services performed for typical dental procedures are very safe, especially for healthy patients. This is why all patients have a pre-anaesthesia evaluation. Although the risk is not zero, as some level of risk is associated with every activity, we make anaesthesia safe by implementing rigorous standards, training, and incorporating a team of qualified personnel.
This team includes you the patient, or you as the parent. Therefore, to make this procedure as safe as possible, it is imperative that you follow the preoperative and postoperative instructions.
What distinguishes our practice from others is all of our dentists have completed multi-year Anaesthesia residencies in that focused on Dental Anesthesia at the University of Toronto and are some of the few dentists in Ontario licenced to provide all levels of sedation including deep sedation and general anaesthesia. Dr. Campbell, Dr. Blackmore and Dr. Decloux all have the distinction of being considered certified specialists in Dental Anaesthesia.
