Is being put under at the dentist for your wisdom teeth the same as being put under general anesthesia?

Asked By:Jrackow in Sacramento, CA

I was told I was put under for my wisdom teeth with gas and IV sedation. I dont remember a thing and didnt feel anything. I'm scared out of my mind of being put under general anesthesia for my bbl surgery. So I am curious, have I been basically put under general anesthesia before or was my experience completely different? Thank you!
