Background : General anesthesia is an approach used to address behavior issues in pediatric dentistry. This indication often relies on the practitioner's discretion rather than objective criteria. We developed SCAN-score to assist pediatric dentists in the case of doubt to indicate general anesthesia for uncooperative children. The study aims were to assess the validity of the SCAN-score, which aims to indicate general anesthesia or chairside management for dental care. Methods : A retrospective study was performed on children aged between 2 and 10 years who received dental care...

Maxillofacial fractures in the pediatric population are generally managed by conservative approaches such as soft diet and medication or semi-invasive procedures namely inter-maxillary fixation or circum-mandibular wiring. These approaches are preferred over any invasive treatment to minimize injury to the growing skeleton and tooth germs. Displaced fractures that cause functional problems such as restricted mouth opening, malocclusion or impaired breathing, mandate open reduction and internal fixation. However, surgical management is associated with morbidity related to general anesthesia, risk of injury to vital structures, and potential, skeletal or dental growth disturbances...

Yuki Kojima, Daisuke Oiwa
The ultrasound-guided selective glossopharyngeal nerve block (UGSGNB) has been developed as an approach to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional glossopharyngeal nerve block. The UGSGNB may be performed when a gag reflex occurs during dental treatment. Case 1 involved a 67-year-old man with a medical history of cervical spondylosis and dilated cardiomyopathy. Dental treatment with conscious sedation and the UGSGNB was performed three times. Case 2 involved a 25-year-old woman who was scheduled for dental treatment under general anesthesia because of dental phobia and gagging...

Doubtlessly, kidney patients present a common challenge in endodontic practice, so specialists in this field should know and follow several key points regarding this group of medically compromised patients. This review paper aims to explain kidney disease and its complications, as well as notify and discuss the latest concepts on anesthesia, pain management, antibiotic prophylaxis/stewardship, and the risk of viral diseases for these patients, and also the oral manifestations of kidney diseases that may guide endodontists to diagnose kidney intervention and prevent hazardous consequences that may happen during or following endodontic practice on these patients...

IMPORTANCE: Endotracheal tubes are typically inserted in the operating room using direct laryngoscopy. Video laryngoscopy has been reported to improve airway visualization; however, whether improved visualization reduces intubation attempts in surgical patients is unclear. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the number of intubation attempts per surgical procedure is lower when initial laryngoscopy is performed using video laryngoscopy or direct laryngoscopy. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Cluster randomized multiple crossover clinical trial conducted at a single US academic hospital...

MATERIALS AND METHODS: The incident reports of medical emergencies recorded at the King Abdulaziz University Dental Hospital from January 2008 to December 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. The annual/overall incidence of medical emergency events was calculated per 100,000 patients.

Disabled persons' chairside dentistry is challenging. We aimed for a retrospective breakdown of dental services delivered to disabled patients by dental students and to discuss feasibility of a chairside approach. Consecutive patients, who received scheduled dental treatment by dental students from 2002 to 2021, were included. Demographic data, medical diagnoses, number of treatment sessions, performed treatments, and treatment break-offs were collected and analyzed with descriptive statistics. In total, 224 individuals with various disabilities (mean age 36...

BACKGROUND: This animal study sought to evaluate two novel nanomaterials for pulpotomy of primary teeth and assess the short-term pulpal response and hard tissue formation in dogs. The results were compared with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). METHODS: This in vivo animal study on dogs evaluated 48 primary premolar teeth of 4 mongrel female dogs the age of 6-8 weeks, randomly divided into four groups (n = 12). The teeth underwent complete pulpotomy under general anesthesia...

Oral health is a vital part of overall health, particularly for children with special healthcare requirements. The terms "dumb" and "mute" are frequently linked with the term "deaf" due to the connection between hearing loss and speech impairment. A hearing and speech-impaired child may be unable to express completely because of the communication barriers. It is important to treat special children with utmost care and safety. This case report describes the dental management of an 8-year-old special child reported with multiple carious lesions under general anesthesia as she was not well acquainted with sign language...

OBJECTIVE: Use a referral dental clinic model to study how to calculate accurate 95% upper confidence limits for probabilities of workloads (total case duration, including turnover time) exceeding allocated times. ANIMALS: Dogs and cats undergoing dental treatments. METHODS: Managerial data (procedure date and duration) collected over 44 consecutive operative workdays were used to calculate the daily anesthetist workload. Workloads were compared with a normal distribution using the Shapiro-Wilk test, serial correlation was examined by runs test, and comparisons among weekdays were made using the Kruskal-Wallis test...

Crowns have been recommended to treat decayed teeth and rebuild teeth function. The dental management of children with autism is a tremendous challenge for pediatric dentists due to the impaired behaviors and communication disorders. In this context, a 5-year-old boy with autism was treated to solve carious lesions under the assistance of general anesthesia. The posterior occlusal function was restored, and the crossbite existing in the primary anterior teeth was approached merely by NuSmile® zirconia crowns (ZCs) rather than orthodontic intervention...

OBJECTIVE: This study examined the rate of caries-related dental treatments under general anesthesia (GA) in fluoridated and non-fluoridated communities in Alberta, Canada, between 2010 and 2019. METHODS: This retrospective, population-based study included all children (< 12 years of age) living in Calgary (non-fluoridated) and Edmonton (fluoridated) who underwent caries-related dental treatments under GA at publicly funded facilities.

BACKGROUND: The need for dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia is increasing, with varying needs between patients. Mortality has been found to be a rare event in these patients; however other perioperative events can and do occur. Previous studies have established increased incidence of perioperative events with younger, sicker children, and longer anesthetics, however, no studies to date have evaluated if the incidence of perioperative events is more closely associated with one long anesthetic or multiple anesthetics per patient...

BACKGROUND: Woolly Hair Syndrome (WHS) is a rare birth condition that affects the structure of hair in non-black people. The pathogenesis is not yet defined. It is postulated that the hair follicle's desmosomes (specifically desmoplaquine, placoglobin and placofilin-1, which are cell structural proteins that keep the adhesion among close cells) would be altered in this pathology, leading to fragility in the cellular union. It is subdivided into two large groups: the localized or circumscribed variant and the generalized variant...

INTRODUCTION: Oropharyngeal throat packs (OPTPs) are frequently used to administer general anesthesia during oral surgery and dental procedures. However, the use of OPTPs has remained controversial, with concerns about their effectiveness, the potential for falling short of expectations, and the inherent risk of serious oversight in removing them. This study aimed to assess the awareness of dental anesthesiologists in the United States of America (USA) and Japan regarding the use of OPTPs...

BACKGROUND: Increasing evidence supports the influence of neighborhood factors on health care use and outcomes. This study measured the association between area-level social determinants of health (SDH) and type of dental care use among Ohio pediatric Medicaid beneficiaries. METHODS: A retrospective dental claims analysis was completed for children aged 1 through 5 years enrolled in Ohio Medicaid with a dental visit in 2017. Dental care use was measured from 2017 through 2021 as 1 of 4 visit types: (1) preventive, (2) caries treatment, (3) dental general anesthesia (GA), and (4) dental emergency department...
