Description:
A concise, practical guide on sedation for dental undergraduates
and dental practitioners. Conscious sedation is a safer and more
cost-effective alternative to general anaesthesia in general dental
practice and a major DoH report, as well as the General Dental Council
regulations, have emphasised the importance of dental sedation.
There are financial incentives for dental practitioners to undertake
sedation and postgraduate education on the subject is being encouraged
on a national basis. The undergraduate curriculum has also been
restructured in the light of the Poswillo Report and students are
now taught sedation techniques as part of their senior training.
