Pedo Dental Treatment Under GA
Pediatric dental treatment under general anesthesia (GA) is a specialized approach used to provide comprehensive dental care for children who require extensive or complex procedures. This technique ensures that children receive necessary treatments in a safe and controlled environment while under the supervision of an anesthesiologist. Pedo dental treatment under GA allows for a comfortable and stress-free experience for young patients who may have difficulty cooperating during traditional dental visits. By offering dental treatment under general anesthesia, children can receive the necessary care while minimizing anxiety and discomfort, promoting their oral health and overall well-being.
Pediatric Dental Treatment under Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Nitrous oxide, also know as laughing gas or “happy air,” is the most frequently used method for easing mild-to-moderate anxiety. Administered through a small mask that fits over your child’s nose, it is an extremely safe adjunct often used by pediatric dentists to minimize apprehension and nervousness associated with dental procedures.
Our pediatric dentist is specially trained in the administration of nitrous oxide which allows your child to have dental treatment completed safely in the dental office setting while he or she remains awake.
At the end of your appointment, your child will resume breathing regular oxygen, and all the effects of nitrous oxide will disappear, so the little patient can resume normal activities immediately.
