Painless Anaesthesia in Pediatric Dentistry: An Updated Review
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 4
Abstract
Pain management is a major concern for most practicing dentists and poses a problem for pediatric patients as well. There have been many recent developments in the field of local anesthesia for dentistry which can be utilized along with conventional techniques to minimize the pain associated with syringe and needles as well as alleviate the apprehension in patients. A pediatric dentist bears the responsibility of instilling a positive dental attitude among children and these newer techniques,when used exclusively or in conjunction with the traditional method of anesthesia, prove to be quite helpful in meeting the objective of pain control during dental procedures. This review aims to summarize the recent advances in painless local anesthesia techniques as well as provide information to practicing dentists regarding better pain control and patient management.
