[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are so many people getting general anesthesia? Seems almost as nuts as the opioids. General anesthesia is not something you want to use more than necessary over a lifetime.[/quote] It’s “twilight” anesthesia/sedation and not really general anesthesia. I remember hearing my teeth crack while I was “out”, so it’s significantly less anesthesia than used in a regular surgery like an appendectomy. They didn’t have the long lasting numbing agents when I had mine out and I did need whatever pain med rx the oral surgeon gave me. Local anesthetics don’t last long for me (due to a genetic condition I didn’t know I had back then) and I remember being in tears later that day even after taking 800mg Motrin. [/quote]
