[10 years of outpatient dental surgery using endotracheal anesthesia. Research report from dental practice].

Abstract

For certain groups of patients, e.g. handicapped people, children or extremely anxious adults, dental surgery with local anesthesia is not possible and hospitalisation is not desirable. In order to provide outpatient treatment using endotracheal anesthesia, a successful practice-oriented concept is presented, involving cooperation between the dental surgeon and an anesthetist in private practices. In the past 10 years, 4205 patients have received outpatient treatment according to this concept.
