The Signature Anesthesia group is dedicated to providing a safe anesthesia experience to all patients we serve. We specialize in providing IV sedation and general anesthesia services for adult and pediatric dental patients.
The Montana Dental Board closely regulates who may provide dental anesthesia and enforces detailed, stringent standards stating what special anesthesia equipment and drugs must be present. Signature Anesthesia surpasses these standards and uses the most advanced, compact, hospital grade equipment and monitors.
