Welcome to the Anaesthesia clinic
Welcome to the Anaesthesia clinic and the Pediatric Surgicentre at the Faculty of Dentistry at the University of Toronto.
We offer different types of dental care with sedation or general anaesthesia. Patients might choose to be asleep for their dental procedure for a variety of reasons. Common ones include medical conditions, physical challenges, extreme anxiety or white coat syndrome.
