What kind of anesthesia do you get for a tooth exposure?

Question

The doctor said they will put someone thing in my nose, and not to eat anything or drink once i wake up. What kind of anesthesia will this be?

Answer 1

If it involves waking up (I assume from sleep or unconsciousness), it's probably general anaesthesia, or maybe gas (which is what they usually administer in a dental ofc). You will need an anaesthesiologist or nurse anaesthetist to administer gen anaesthesia - way too expensive. They go through more years of educ than your dentist.
