GM – Oral Sedation

Oral Sedation (In-person course)

3 CEU, Core • Member Price: $85 early / $95 regular / $99 late

Fear of the dentist is one of our most common fears. Many patients avoid seeking dental treatment because of these fears. Children are no exception.

In this program, Dr. Malamed will review the two most commonly employed management techniques for dental fear and anxiety: the oral route of drug administration (e.g., triazolam [Halcion]) and inhalation (N20-02).

We will compare their efficacy and safety, as well as their utility in the pediatric dental patient.

Course Objectives (At the conclusion of this program, the attendee should be able to):

• Name 5 routes of sedative drug administration
• Compare the efficacy and titratability of these 5 routes of drug administration
• Discuss the regimen for use of oral sedation in the dental office
• Describe the technique of administration of N2O-O2
