Sleep Dentistry
for when you just want the stress taken out of dental treatment...
What is general anaesthetic?
General anaesthetic allows you to be completely asleep and unaware during your dental procedure.
This can be an appropriate option for patients who:
-
experience significant dental anxiety,
-
have difficulty tolerating dental treatment,
-
have complex treatment needs,
-
or are unable to undergo treatment comfortably while awake.
On-site facility
At Dental on Errard, we faciliate general anaesthesia in our Studio building with our Anaesthetic team from Central Highlands Anaesthetic Association.
Payment
Your dental treatment and anaesthetic fees are billed separately.
If you have private health insurance with dental cover, you may be able to claim a rebate on your dental treatment.
You may also be eligible for a Medicare rebate on the anaesthetic component of your treatment.
