The cases of twenty-four patients who underwent genioplasties either under deep intravenous (IV) sedation in a dental office or under general anesthesia in a surgical center were reviewed. A cost comparison of this operation in these two environments showed that it was twice as expensive to have the same procedure done in an outpatient surgical suite under general anesthesia as it was in a private office under IV sedation.
回顾了24例在牙科诊所接受深度静脉镇静或在手术中心接受全身麻醉下行颏成形术的患者病例。对该手术在这两种环境下的费用比较显示，在门诊手术套房接受全身麻醉进行相同手术的费用是在私人诊所接受静脉镇静的两倍。
