Dental treatment under general anesthesia or sedation in Berlin

We offer dental treatment under general anesthesia in our general anesthesia practice in Berlin mainly for anxious patients and extensive surgical interventions. This includes, for example, the insertion of dental implants or the removal of wisdom teeth if the procedure is complicated or if all four wisdom teeth are to be removed during an appointment.

If there is no medical indication for dental treatment under general anesthesia, as a patient you can address dental treatment under general anesthesia at your own request. If there is no medical indication, you bear the costs of general anesthesia yourself. If there is a medical need, the health insurance companies pay the costs of general anesthesia. We will be happy to advise you on the amount of the costs and possible medical indications during our consultation hours in our general anesthetic practice in Berlin at Alexanderplatz or in Berlin-Tegel.

Anesthetic treatments are not the norm, but there are patient groups that give the dentist no choice. This is especially true for young children who have problems with multiple teeth. When awake, a renovation would take a very long time and the child would have to be very willing to cooperate. Despite the honest efforts of all those affected, dentists know: Unfortunately, it does not work, and if it does, it works far too rarely. But even patients with physical and mental impairments find it difficult to access relaxed help. For this very reason, incubation anesthesia is seen as the only way to carry out lengthy dental treatment at rest.

Anesthesia at the dentist / dental treatment under anesthesia

We do everything to enable you to have pain-free and anxiety-free dental treatment. We use effective local anesthetics, elements of dental hypnosis and, if you want, gentle sedatives so that you can relax in the dentist’s chair.

General anesthesia for major interventions and as an option for anxious patients and children

Still – some patients still panic at the dentist. Perhaps you have had a bad experience with a “representative of the guild”. Or you are simply particularly sensitive to pain and the crossing of boundaries, which of course means letting a doctor come so close to you. Do not let this panic prevent you from visiting the dentist – and with it important and necessary prophylactic and therapeutic measures that will sooner or later turn your denture into a giant construction site. Take it on!

Brandenburg dentists advise timely prevention of anxiety

Sweets or sugary drinks: there are many dangers for small children’s teeth. Without good oral hygiene from the start, tooth decay can be the result. The first visit to the dentist in pain is a bad experience, especially for the little ones.

In some cases, anesthesia is required so that the dentist can treat the young patient at all. Local anesthesia, hypnosis or anesthesia – there are various methods. But not everyone should be the first choice when treating children, as the Brandenburg Dental Association (LZÄKB) explains.

Dental treatment under general anesthesia

Dental treatment under general anesthesia always takes place in close cooperation with our anesthetist. Our focus here is on facilitating treatment for every patient who would like to have dental treatment performed under general anesthesia for certain reasons (e.g. great fear, extensive oral surgery). It is particularly important to discuss the treatment under general anesthesia and the preparation for it in advance.

explanatory meeting

Important content of the conversation may include: a. the mode of action of anesthesia, the course of treatment, general risks of treatment under general anesthesia, the duration of the anesthesia and what should be considered in the period after treatment. We also go into detail about the preparation in the hours before the procedure. We take enough time for the interview so that you leave the practice well informed and without any open questions.

General anesthetic costs for wisdom teeth:

Before the procedure, the general anesthetic costs for the wisdom teeth surgery must be clarified with the dentist. Standard operations cost between 250 euros and 350 euros per hour. The costs for twilight sleep are lower and are between 80 euros and 180 euros. The patient can find out the exact costs in a preliminary consultation with the dentist, oral surgeon or in the clinic.

Assumption of costs by the statutory health insurance:

The statutory health insurance companies cover the costs of local anesthesia and extraction during a wisdom tooth operation. The statutory health insurance companies generally do not cover the general anesthetic costs for wisdom teeth surgery. In exceptional cases, the statutory health insurance companies promise to cover the costs. Exceptions are health reasons that speak against anesthesia and a complicated removal of the wisdom teeth. If the patient is extremely afraid of the dentist and the operating room, he must prove this. In such a case, the costs can be covered.

For many sufferers, fear of the dentist can lead to long-term damage to the teeth. (© pathdoc – fotolia) There are situations that leave traumatic wounds after visiting the dentist. Tales from acquaintances can stir up treatment phobias, so that normal therapy at the dentist is no longer imaginable.

The mere thought of visiting a dentist or dental treatment leads to discomfort and anxiety, sweating, rapid heartbeat and dizziness and even panic attacks. The result of this cycle is obvious: Often, those affected do not go to the dentist for years, and the need for treatment is constantly increasing.
