Our Companion Policy
Dental treatment under general anaesthesia in our hospital is day-case. After the procedure the patient stays under observation for about 30 minutes to one hour and is discharged on the same day with the doctor's approval. A companion must accompany children and patients with disabilities before and after the procedure.
