Pre-Operative Instructions: Anesthesia

It's important to review these pre-operative instructions before undergoing any oral surgery to ensure you are properly prepared for your procedure. We will review all of your options for anesthesia during your initial consulation, and help you select the option that is best and safest for you.

Local Anesthesia

Your mouth and teeth should be well cleansed immediately before your appointment.

General Anesthesia

•	You must not have anything to eat or drink after midnight the day before your procedure. The evening before surgery, eat a light, easily digestible meal, consume no alcoholic beverages, and retire early.
•	Disregarding the above eating instructions may necessitate cancellation and rescheduling of your surgery. This is for your safety.
•	Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. Avoid heavy makeup and lipstick, and do not wear jewelry.
•	You must have a designated driver present in the MSOFS waiting room during surgery and available to drive you home after the procedure. (Designated driver must be 18 years of age or older with a valid driver's license.)
