Information For Dentists
What special equipment do I need in my office beyond my normal dental equipment?
Answer: None. The dentist anesthesiologist is prepared to bring all necessary equipment and supplies. The operating
dentist or a dental assistant may be needed to assist briefly during initial positioning of patient.
How can I get more information?
Answer: Contact my office anytime. You will be sent patient document packets and informational brochures. We can set
up an appointment to visit your office and talk about anesthesia for dentistry in your office.
How can anesthesia benefit my practice?
Answer: You can tap into the market of patients whom you might otherwise never see, people with dental phobias and
other issues preventing conventional dental treatment. Much more dentistry can be accomplished in shorter amounts of
time while patients are sedated.
Are there increased professional liability insurance requirements for having a Dentist
Anesthesiologist perform anesthesia in my office?
Answer: No. The dentist anesthesiologist who is treating the patient with sedation/ general anesthesia is professionally
responsible for all sedation/ general anesthesia treatment. The operating dentist is responsible for all dental treatment.
Therefore no extra professional liability coverage is necessary. You can verify this by contacting your insurance carrier.
