Abstract

Most (99%) patients treated at this university clinic do not need any form of sedation as rapport and behavioral management skills are more than sufficient and are safe. Those aged 1 to 5 years, who needed the use of oral sedation (Midazolam), showed 70% success. Those who needed nitrous oxide /oxygen ranged in age from 8 to 18 years and were later treated without any sort of conscious sedation after one or two sessions of nitrous oxide / oxygen sedation.
