[quote=Anonymous]Unless you're taking your daughter to a surgical center to have her wisdom teeth removed I absolutely would not allow her to be put under in a dentist's office. Anesthesia has a fairly major effect on your body and the more times you go under the larger does they have to give you. "Twilight" sedation is different as the body metabolizes it quickly and there are rarely side effects. It used to only be recommended for people with high anxiety but its become very common in the past few years. If your daughter does not suffer from high anxiety I would probably opt for numbing & nitrous, the dentist should prescribe a pain killer that she can take after for any lingering pain. I had mine done 4 years ago after some issues and opted for numbing. While it was uncomfortable it was more like constant pressure in my mouth than any pain.[/quote]
