Why would I consider General Anesthesia?

​​

Outpatient General Anesthesia is recommended for apprehensive children, very young children, and children with special needs who cannot tolerate traditional in-chair treatment. It’s also ideal for patients who need extensive dental treatment done at one time.

​

Treatment under General Anesthesia in our office setting may be an option for the safety, health, and comfort of your child and is often necessary to provide quality dental care. Our doctors will assess your child’s needs and develop an individualized plan that works best for your child and family. Currently, we provide these services at our St. Clair Shores location.

​

Typical procedures include:

• Extractions

• White Fillings

• Stainless Steel Crowns

• Nerve Treatments

• X-Rays

• Cleanings

​

The Growing Smiles dental team, along with an Anesthesiologist, will be there with the patient. Our procedures are outpatient, so patients can go home the same day and relax.

​

Whether you’re a current patient or looking for a new dental home, we’re happy to discuss this dental option with you.​​​
