Dental treatment/removal under intravenous sedation

A visit to the children's dentist to remove a tooth should never again be associated with panic, lengthy persuasion and bitter tears. The modern dentistry of Inwhite Medical Kids breaks outdated stereotypes and offers completely comfortable dental treatment under sedation in Moscow. We fully understand parents' natural worries and carefully look after the psychological health of every young patient. When an unpleasant surgical procedure is ahead, we strongly recommend using safe relaxing gas. This innovative solution helps keep a fragile nervous system calm and makes tooth removal under sedation easy and completely unnoticeable for children. Our clinic creates a unique atmosphere of an engaging game, where there is absolutely no place for pain and inner tension.

Any surgery in the mouth causes strong fear not only in children but in adults too. When the dentist plans a complex removal, their main goal is to minimise any stress. In modern practice, treatment under sedation is recognised as the gentlest and most sparing approach.

Unlike traditional methods of firm restraint, comfortable dental treatment using nitrous oxide makes it possible to fully relieve emotional tension. The child is fully conscious, watches their favourite cartoons and feels safe while a qualified doctor calmly and quickly does the work.

The features of a child's jaw require extreme caution from the specialist. When treating a child it is critically important not to touch or damage the buds of the future permanent teeth, which are located between the roots of the baby teeth. Careful extraction of an unsalvageable tooth is often complicated by the fact that a frightened child simply can't sit still in the chair for long.

A timely approach to surgical treatment requires the patient to be emotionally calm. Statistics relentlessly show that dental diseases in children develop very rapidly, so putting off a visit to the doctor is absolutely not allowed. High-quality and prompt treatment of a tooth (surgical or therapeutic) reliably saves it from an acute situation spreading and protects the buds of the permanent teeth.

Many caring parents often confuse these two completely different medical terms. When treating teeth under sedation in children, a light oxygen-nitrogen mixture is used (known as nitrous oxide). It's important to understand clearly: this is by no means general anaesthesia or deep medicated sleep!

The young patient simply breathes the slightly sweet air through a comfortable nasal mask. They relax, calmly take in what is happening around them, the gag reflex is reduced, but all their main reflexes are preserved: they breathe on their own and can move, are conscious, hear everything, understand and can talk. We help reduce the child's anxiety and worry. Classic general anaesthesia, on the other hand, fully switches off consciousness. That's exactly why atraumatic removal of each tooth under an oxygen-nitrogen mask is considered a much easier procedure, after which there is absolutely no need for a long and hard recovery.

In which specific case does a dental appointment require the use of a relaxing gas mixture? First of all, we strongly recommend tooth removal under sedation in children if extensive, surgically complex and lengthy work is ahead.

This advanced method is also ideal if a pronounced increased gag reflex is present. We use this method because it is an effective and safe method, a standard of dentistry in the world's most medically developed countries.

How safe is this approach for a growing body? Many years of international practice prove that it is safe when all protocols are followed. The light mixture of oxygen and nitrogen doesn't bind to proteins, doesn't build up in the internal organs and is completely eliminated unchanged in just a few minutes after the breathing mask is removed.

Preparation for sedation using nitrous oxide is minimal but important. No complex diagnostic examinations are required before nitrous-oxide sedation. The highest confirmed qualification of our children's oral surgeons guarantees that any procedure will be as comfortable as possible. Give the gift of joy and a healthy, beautiful smile without the slightest fear and without hidden psychological traumas for the rest of life!
