About the service
Лечение во сне
At Inwhite Medical Kids we know exactly how to keep a smile healthy without tears, tantrums or stress. This service is a modern and completely safe method that makes it possible to restore oral health as comfortably as possible. When extensive treatment is ahead, every parent understandably feels anxiety and doubt. But treating teeth under anaesthesia reliably spares the patient pain and great fright, forming a positive attitude to doctors for life. We successfully carry out the most complex dental procedures to save children's smiles, restoring teeth under general anaesthesia in Moscow, guaranteeing you complete peace of mind and your child the highest quality of result. Forget the days when children were held down by force — today dentistry has become a place of care.
Our clinic strictly follows the principle of treating every child as gently as possible. There are difficult clinical situations where standard nitrous-oxide sedation, playful adaptation methods or lengthy persuasion simply don't bring the desired result. It is precisely then that the use of medicated sleep becomes the only correct and truly humane solution. It's important to understand that this is a strict medical indication aimed at comprehensively protecting a fragile psyche, not just a specialist's subjective whim.
If a child is not yet three or four years old, it is physically very hard for them to sit still with an open mouth for a long time. High-quality treatment of baby teeth at such an early age often requires complete muscular and emotional relaxation. Artificial sleep for young children is extremely gentle: they simply close their eyes, breathing in the sweet air through a mask, and wake up already completely healthy. It is very important to carry out dental treatment under sedation in children in time, or to resort to general anaesthesia, so that an acute infection doesn't have time to damage the deep bud from which a strong permanent tooth will later grow. Any delay can lead to early loss of a tooth.
Nature is arranged so that the enamel of temporary teeth is very porous and thin, so the destructive process happens rapidly. When an aggressive infection has affected many areas at once, professional treatment under anaesthesia makes it possible to carry out the entire huge amount of work in just a single visit. The treating doctor manages to thoroughly clean all the cavities and place reliable fillings or zirconia crowns. This spares the family the exhausting need to visit the office many times and disturb the child unnecessarily.
Unfortunately, a negative past experience at other medical facilities often provokes persistent dental phobia. To reliably protect the sensitive psyche of young children and avoid forming a deep trauma, dental treatment under anaesthesia is used. The child calmly falls asleep right in mum's warm arms. No frightening noise of the drill, no bright lamps in the face and no painful injections — just deep, peaceful sleep, after which they can watch their favourite cartoons and get a gift.
In modern children's dentistry the question of uncompromising safety always comes first, well ahead of any other aspects of the work. Any anaesthesia in young children must be carried out by our specialist doctors strictly according to the most rigorous international protocols, completely ruling out any unforeseen risks.
In our everyday practice we use only an original, certified inhalation anaesthetic. It doesn't cause allergic reactions, provides even medicated sleep and within minutes is completely eliminated from the body through the lungs, leaving absolutely no trace. That's why treating teeth safely under anaesthesia today is a global gold standard of comfortable medical care.
Right beside the dental chair, every second, is a highly qualified anaesthetist-resuscitator. Using ultra-precise smart equipment, they continuously monitor the current state of the pulse, breathing, blood pressure and blood oxygen saturation for the whole time the main treatment lasts. When we delicately save the health of a tooth using anaesthesia, a coordinated team of three or four top-category specialists is responsible for the patient's wellbeing.
For anaesthesia to go as smoothly as possible for children and without any consequences, competent and very responsible preparation on the family's part is required. Any planned treatment under anaesthesia must always be agreed in advance with a paediatrician.
Before the scheduled visit we will always ask you to have a basic clinical blood test, a coagulogram and an ECG. This is an unwavering standard of examination that lets the treating team be one hundred percent sure that anaesthesia in children will go completely routinely and predictably. Impeccable dental health in children is extremely important, but the overall physical wellbeing of a small body is our top priority.
The key requirement parents must meet is a strict fasting pause. It is categorically forbidden to have any solid food for six hours, or even to drink clear liquids for four hours, before the planned procedure begins. This simple but critically important discipline makes your child's artificial sleep during the medical procedure completely safe, preventing any stomach discomfort. After we finish the complex restoration of teeth under anaesthesia, the child will come round very quickly in our cosy recovery room.
