That is up to you to decide with your dentist.
Requirements for any dental surgery include local anesthetic. Options include conscious sedation, deep sedation, and general anesthesia. Usually, oral cyst removal is performed with either local anesthetic alone or in conjunction with a type of sedation. Talk to your dental surgeon about your option choices.
It is up to you and your oral surgeon. The larger the cyst the more likely you would require general anesthesia. It is a decision made mostly by your oral surgeon.
