We provide hospital-level general anesthesia using advanced airway management and carefully selected anesthetic medications designed to maintain hemodynamic stability, maximize patient comfort, and create optimal conditions for efficient dental/oral surgical care.

At Hine Anesthesia, every anesthetic is personally administered by Dr. Hine, a board-certified physician anesthesiologist who has completed medical school, surgical training, and anesthesiology residency, with more than 20,000 hours of hospital-based clinical and anesthesia experience.

Many dental and oral surgery practices offer IV sedation. Dr. Hine provides true general anesthesia with a secured airway and balanced anesthetic technique for every case. This approach offers several important advantages:

Airway Protection and Physiologic Stability 🛡️
Patients are managed with a secured airway using either an endotracheal tube (ETT) or laryngeal mask airway (LMA), helping maintain ventilation, oxygenation, and physiologic stability throughout the procedure.

Lower Risk of Intra-Operative Awareness 💤
Balanced general anesthesia significantly reduces the risk of awareness compared with sedation-based techniques.

Optimal Surgical Conditions 👍
Stable anesthetic depth and controlled airway management create ideal conditions for the surgeon, improving procedural efficiency and precision.

Comprehensive Physiologic Monitoring and Safety Measures ❤️
Every patient is continuously monitored using standards comparable to those used in hospitals and accredited surgery centers, including:

• Continuous oxygen saturation (SpO₂)
• End-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO₂)
• Electrocardiography (ECG)
• Non-invasive blood pressure monitoring (NIBP)
• Temperature monitoring

In addition, patients in the appropriate demographic will have sequential compression devices placed for cases exceeding 1 hour for venous thromboembolism prophylaxis, similar to hospital OR protocols.

By combining airway control, balanced anesthesia, and comprehensive monitoring and safety standards, we deliver anesthetic care designed to maximize safety, comfort, and procedural success for every patient.
