Root canal treatment under anaesthesia

An inflamed nerve can cause a lot of pain, but the thought of treatment can be just as frightening. At Narcose Dental, we understand your concerns and offer a solution by performing root canal treatments under general anesthesia. You don’t need to worry about pain or fear; with us, you’ll sleep peacefully through the procedure without feeling or noticing a thing.

Who is a root canal treatment under anesthesia suitable for?

A root canal treatment under anesthesia isn’t necessary for everyone, but it can be a great option for some people, especially if you:

  • Have a fear of the dentist (dentophobia)
  • Have a low pain tolerance
  • Have had a bad experience with previous dental visits
  • Have a small mouth opening
  • Struggle with a heightened gag reflex


At Narcose Dental, we understand that everyone is unique. That’s why we offer a personalized treatment plan, tailored to your specific needs and preferences.

Our process: from intake to treatment

Step 1: Registering at the practice

The process starts with your registration, which you can easily do via our website or by phone. We will promptly contact you to discuss your needs and schedule an intake appointment.

Step 2: The intake consultation

During the intake, you’ll meet our dentist and assistants, who will put you at ease and explain everything calmly. We’ll discuss your preferences and any previous experiences. Together, we’ll create a treatment plan tailored to your specific situation, and we’ll clearly explain each step.

Step 3: The anesthesia treatment

On the day of your treatment, you’ll come to our practice. After a short chat with the dentist, our anesthesiologist will gently put you to sleep. If you prefer, someone can even stay with you in the room until you fall asleep. The dentist will then perform the root canal treatment painlessly while you sleep. When you wake up, everything will be done.

The benefits of treatments under anesthesia:

  • No pain or discomfort: You won’t feel a thing during the procedure and will wake up when it’s all over.
  • Ideal for lengthy or complex treatments: Multiple procedures can be performed in one session.
  • No unpleasant memory of the treatment: After the procedure, you won’t remember the treatment itself, as it took place under anesthesia. This can make the recovery process less mentally taxing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Root Canal Treatment Under Anesthesia

Generally, undergoing anesthesia is safe, but like any medical procedure, there is always some risk involved. That’s why we conduct thorough screenings. Our anesthesia team is a dedicated group of professionals who ensure you’re in good hands during the procedure. They carefully assess your medical history, choose the right type of anesthesia, and continuously monitor your vital signs to ensure everything goes smoothly during the treatment.

After the anesthesia, you may feel a little drowsy, and it’s important to get plenty of rest. You’ll receive aftercare instructions to help your recovery go as smoothly as possible.

A dental anesthesia treatment consists of two parts: the dental procedure and the anesthesia. Just like with a regular dental treatment, the procedure may be covered if you’re insured for it. However, the cost of the anesthesia falls outside insurance coverage and will need to be paid out of pocket.
