About dental anaesthesia
A dental anesthesiologist provides sedation and general anaesthesia for dental treatment, which matters for young children, people with severe anxiety and patients with special health care needs.
Paying for a visit
This is a dental school clinic. Treatment is given by students under faculty supervision, usually for less than a private practice charges, but appointments are longer and there is often a screening visit first. Dental school clinics: what to expect, and is it worth it?

Questions to ask when you call
- Are you taking new patients, and how soon is the first appointment?
- Does Jesse Manton see adults, and do you take my Medicaid plan?
- Do I need a referral from a general dentist first?
- Do you offer reduced fees or a payment plan for patients without insurance?
- What will the first visit cost me, and what will it include?
A dentist registered at an address may work there only some days, or may have moved on. The clinic's front desk can confirm.
