Ok, so I'm still looking for some info on this sedation thing. I finnaly hauled myself into the dentist last week (The one in the basement of the Inn on Lake Bonivista) as a small part of one of my upper wisdom teeth broke off and wanted to get it dealt with. Turns out I have to have both my upper wisdom teeth yanked. I asked about the sedation thing with the dentist there and what she told me is this, she is not a fan of it as most dental offices don't have a crash cart. She went on to say if I did want to be sedated, she would have to bring in an anisthesiologist and that would cost a cool grand. WAY to much to justify. So what I guess she was getting at is the sedation most dentists use is a good gassing, no anisthesiologist. Yet yesterday I was talking to a buddy of mine who had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled with sedation and it cost him only $400. Now obvisouly there were some benefits paid out but I would really prefer to go this route.
Has anyone here actually done this? Where did you go? Cost? Help?
