If you have maligant hyperthermia, can you have an iv sedation for wisdom teeth removal?

Yes: The IV sedation for wisdom teeth are relatively safe. Avoiding gas anesthetic agents and paralytic drugs will be important. Your doctor will know this information. Have a consultation with your dentist/oral surgeon.

Tell your surgeon: Be sure that you tell this to your oral surgeon who will evaluate the risks vs the benefits of your treatment, and discuss any alternatives that may be available.

Recently referred young patient to Oral Surgeon for pre-Orthodontic extractions. Parent never listed Malignant Hyperthermia on our Med Health Form, but fortunately did disclose to Oral Surgeon. With that knowledge OS altered choice of anesthesia and patient did marvelously well. Fully disclose Med Hx to your Oral Surgeon. Anesthetic choices are part of his/her training & experience.
