Abstract:

The provision of adequate anxiety control is an integral part of the practice of dentistry. Conscious sedation is one of the management strategies on a spectrum ranging from behavioural techniques (including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)) to general anaesthesia which should be considered with the patient. Conscious sedation is recognised internationally to be an integral element of the control of pain and anxiety and is an important aspect of the modern practice of dentistry and should be accessible in primary dental care and all clinical dental specialty pathways. This workshop focusses on inhalation sedation.
