Dental Treatment for Patients with Medically Complex Cases

Dr. Hoffmann and Dr. Thoms are the only Board Certified Dental Anesthesiologists in Missouri, including the St. Louis Metro Area.

Many medical conditions can make certain dental procedures difficult and complex. Some patients have compromised medical functions that may be unable to complete standard dental care independently, have a dental phobia, or do not have the mental or physical capability to sit through a lengthy dental procedure.

Therefore, patients with complex medical conditions require one-on-one attention in a comfortable and safe dental environment. Dr. Hoffmann, Dr. Thoms, and Dr. Daugherty are here to provide safe sedation dentistry to our patients.

Can You Receive Treatment?

At The Dental Anesthesia Center, we offer convenient and safe sedation options for patients who require a special needs dentist. Many medical conditions make sedation dentistry necessary. Some of these include patients with:

• Diabetes
• Cancer
• Epilepsy
• Kidney disease
• Respiratory disease
• Allergies to medications or local anesthesia
• Neurological disorders like PTSD
• Heart problems
• Stroke or cardiovascular disease

Each patient has their own unique set of conditions. Our dental team will tailor your treatment to fit your specific needs. To treat a patient with a complex medical history, we will set up a personalized pretreatment assessment. Our assessments are detailed with immediate collaboration among our team. Dr. Hoffmann and Dr. Thoms are the only Board Certified Dental Anesthesiologists in Missouri, including the St. Louis Metro Area.
