Summary
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the impact of a brief guided visualization exercise on anesthesia-related outcomes in oral and maxillofacial surgery in patients scheduled for ambulatory anesthesia in the oral and maxillofacial surgery clinic. Researchers will compare these patients, who will receive the guided visualization exercise in addition to standardized pre-operative instructions, to patients who will only receive the standardized pre-operative instructions. The following outcomes will be measured for both groups: * A seven-point Anesthesia Experience Survey * Face-Legs-Activity-Cry-Consolability (FLACC) scores at three points in time during the anesthetic - during local anesthesia, during surgery, and fifteen minutes after surgery has concluded * Amount of medications used during the sedation * Length of sedation
