Abstract
Background: While the majority of children are able to receive dental treatment in a standard office setting, there are some who struggle with being in a conscious state during the procedure and do not respond well to usual methods of management. As a result, the purpose of this review is to explore this topic in greater detail.
Evidence Acquisition: To gather relevant information on dental general anesthesia in children, a computerized search was conducted using various databases such as PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Google Scholar, and Google. The search focused on articles written in English and included both original research and review articles. There was no limitation on the publication date of the articles. After retrieving the articles, a careful selection process was undertaken to identify those that were relevant to the topic. The selected papers were then studied in detail, and the relevant findings were recorded using a data form designed by the author
Results: A thorough preoperative oral examination, along with a comprehensive evaluation of treatment needs, can only be performed following a clinical and radiographic oral examination. To minimize psychological trauma in children undergoing dental GA, effective collaboration among the dental team is necessary. Additionally, before proceeding with comprehensive dental treatment under GA, it's crucial to accurately assess the child's general health and the success rate of the planned procedures. It's also important to determine the optimal timing for the GA dental operation. Ensuring safety during pediatric dental rehabilitation under GA is of utmost importance
Conclusions: While there are specific criteria for selecting cases that require dental GA, dental practitioners still need to exercise their judgment to make a decision. Although instructing parents or caregivers with pre- and post-operative guidelines can assist in mitigating complications, the utilization of trained resuscitation providers, vigilant monitoring, and advanced equipment is crucial in reducing unfavorable outcomes.
