DEVELOPING INDICATIONS FOR CONSCIOUS SEDATION IN THE THERAPEUTIC TREATMENT OF DENTAL DISEASES IN CHILDREN

Abstract

 When  selecting  a  treatment  strategy  for  children,  it  is  important to consider not only the clinical course of the disease but also the child’s age,  developmental  level,  ability  to  communicate,  and  capacity  to  remain  cooperative  during  treatment.  Some  children  can  be  treated  using  basic  psychological  and  behavioral  guidance  techniques,  whereas  others  may  experience  severe  anxiety,  involuntary movements, or difficulty tolerating procedures and may require additional  sedation.
