Abstract
Oral sedation plays a pivotal role in pediatric dentistry, providing an effective approach to manage anxiety and behavioral challenges in young patients. The fear and apprehension associated with dental visits can lead to non-cooperation, making it challenging for dental practitioners to deliver proper care. Behavior management techniques in pediatric dentistry have evolved over the years to create a child-friendly and comfortable environment in the dental office. One approach that has gained popularity is the use of oral sedatives to help alleviate childrens anxiety and facilitate cooperative behavior during dental treatments. Oral sedation involves administering safe and carefully dosed medications to induce a state of relaxation, without the need for general anesthesia. Utilizing oral sedatives in pediatric dentistry not only facilitates the dental procedure but also enhances the overall experience for both the child and the dental team.
