Hello.
I have a very big problem. I am 23 years old and have not been to the dentist for 8 years because I had problems with my dentist in childhood and developed an extreme fear. My mouth is a disaster. I would like to know whether treatment under general anesthesia is possible. Thank you in advance for your answer or any advice. Thank you.

Dear Sir/Madam!

Treatment under general anesthesia is normally reserved for patients who, because of mental or other systemic diseases, are unable to cooperate during procedures. Dental treatment under general anesthesia is difficult for several reasons; it is radical (limited to a single session) and therefore comes nowhere near the quality and results that we can achieve with normal therapy. I recommend a normal visit to the dentist with normal preparation, treatment under local anesthesia, and plenty of goodwill. Treatment under general anesthesia is of course possible (a paid service), but unless it is truly necessary, the profession advises against it.

Have a nice day!
