Indications for performing dental procedures under sedation:

• The child is very afraid of the treatment or cannot sit still for the entire session.
• A complex procedure is planned (for example, treatment of several teeth in one visit).
• The child is allergic to drugs used for local anesthesia.
• An increased gag reflex complicates dental treatment when the child is conscious.

Safe and certified drugs (“Sevoran”, etc.) are used to immerse the child in a medical sleep. However, it is important to make sure that their use (and the procedure in general) is not associated with the risk of side effects. Therefore, the treatment is carried out in two stages. At the first, the little patient, accompanied by his parents, takes tests and undergoes hardware examinations (if necessary). The treatment itself is carried out during a return visit to the clinic.

The pediatric dentist involves the child in the format of an associative game. When the baby gets used to the chair and relaxes, the doctor suggests that he breathe through a medical mask. The gas supplied immerses the patient in a superficial sleep for one or two minutes. After that, sensors of the equipment are connected to the child’s body, which monitors heartbeat, breathing and other physiological parameters. During the procedure, the child’s condition is monitored by a professional anesthesiologist.

After the session, the child is taken out of the drug sleep, and the doctor checks his well-being. The presence of the parents nearby provides the baby with a sense of peace and security. The final stage of treatment is a consultation with a doctor with recommendations for oral care.

Teeth treatment in a dream: advantages

• Effective solution to the problem of anxiety, panic fear or restlessness of a child.
• The possibility of carrying out a complex and long procedure in one session.
• An alternative solution when the use of standard local anesthetics is impossible or inappropriate (medical contraindications).

Since the procedure — whether it is the removal of baby teeth or the treatment of deep caries — is painless, it does not form a negative impression in the child about visiting the dentist, which prevents fear of subsequent visits. You can be in the office during the procedure or, at least, be in the field of view of the baby when he falls asleep and wakes up.
