What we provide

Anesthesia Services

Office-based anesthesia for dental and surgical practices. All medications, monitoring, and emergency equipment brought onsite.

At GMC Anesthesia, we bring hospital-level mobile anesthesia care directly to dental offices, oral surgery practices, ambulatory surgical centers, and select outpatient clinics. Wisconsin and Minnesota are our primary service areas, with licensed coverage also available in Iowa, Illinois, and Michigan.

Our mobile approach allows patients to receive care in familiar surroundings while giving providers the support and equipment needed to perform procedures safely and efficiently — without the limitations of a hospital setting.

We partner with dental offices, oral surgery practices, and ambulatory surgical centers to deliver personalized anesthesia care that enhances patient comfort, reduces anxiety, and ensures safety at every step.

Our Anesthesia Services

Below is an overview of the anesthesia services we provide. Each links to a detailed page explaining how the service works, when it’s used, and what patients can expect.

Local Anesthesia

Local anesthesia numbs a small, specific area — such as a tooth or section of skin — so treatment can be completed comfortably while the patient remains awake.

Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC) and IV Sedation

MAC and IV sedation combine pain management with relaxation, allowing patients to stay comfortable while breathing on their own. Ideal for outpatient procedures performed in-office.

Regional Anesthesia

Regional anesthesia numbs a specific part of the body, such as an arm or leg, while patients remain awake and comfortable. It provides excellent pain control for longer procedures and is easily performed in a mobile, office-based setting.

Children require specialized care when it comes to anesthesia. Our pediatric anesthesia services are designed to keep young patients safe, comfortable, and calm during dental or outpatient procedures. With experienced CRNAs, hospital-grade monitoring, and family-focused communication, we deliver trusted in-office anesthesia care for children across Wisconsin and Minnesota, with broader availability in Iowa, Illinois, and Michigan. Pediatric dental · Children requiring sedation Learn more about Pediatric Anesthesia →

High-Anxiety & Trauma-Informed Anesthesia Care

Patients with severe dental anxiety, prior procedural trauma, or difficulty tolerating treatment often require structured sedation planning beyond standard approaches. GMC Anesthesia provides office-based IV sedation and general anesthesia tailored for high-anxiety patients, allowing dental and oral surgery practices to safely manage complex cases while maintaining predictable workflow and monitoring standards.

GMC Anesthesia partners with dental and oral surgery practices to deliver structured, office-based sedation and general anesthesia that supports safe case completion while maintaining hospital-level monitoring in a familiar clinical setting.
