    Question:

    I suffer from dental phobia. But may not postpone the dentist visit any longer. Can I get treatment under general anesthesia?

    Answer:

    Dear Mille

    It is the absolute last resort when you choose to put a patient in the general anesthesia. There are other forms of treatment of dental phobia, blah. hypnosis, acupuncture or premedication with a sedative before each treatment. There are certain dental clinics around the country that offer general anesthesia. Of course it would be best for you in the future to be treated by a private dentist without a general anesthesia, so try and talk with your dentist about what it is you're so afraid of.
    I am sending a few examples and telephone no. to dentists who offer general anaesthetic. Since I don't know where in the country you are located, I will send you a few you can contact:

      Read here http://babyvild.dk/akupunktur many are starting to use acupuncture as an anaesthetic at birth. If this is the case, and it actually is analgesic during childbirth, mon so not also it would help when you are sitting in a tandlægestol...

      Interesting with the acupuncture. I also suffer from dental phobia, but my current was not particularly good to handle it so I have to contact someone different through http://www.tandklinik.dk/ where I got a really great clinic.

      So it can only be recommended to switch if you do not feel comfortable with your current!

      I myself have suffered from dental phobia and will think that what helped was to find a sympathetic dentist. I had the previous one, that most were interested in sending as many “through the system” as possible. I found one on http://www.sundhed.dk/ and have certainly not regretted it.

      Also interesting with the acupuncture.
