Practical Conscious Sedation offers the ability to provide effective and safe dental treatment under different types of conscious sedation techniques. Sometimes, it is impossible to provide dental treatment for patients with a real fear of dentistry or patients with medically compromised conditions.

Control of anxiety and pain is fundamental to the practice of dentistry. Basic sedation techniques (intravenous midazolam and inhaled nitrous oxide and oxygen) are described in detail; alternative techniques, which may be appropriate in special circumstances, are also outlines. Furthermore, dental patients might faced with extremely distressing dental procedures, such as a difficult surgical extraction, which might lead to precipitate their medical condition. Therefore, conscious sedation should be considered as an integral element of the control of pain and anxiety in the delivery of dental care. In the other words, conscious sedation is an important aspect of the modern practice of dentistry.

Practical Conscious Sedation is a succinct, authoritative and easy-to-read text suitable for dental and medical practitioners, qualified dental nurses, undergraduate, and postgraduate dental students.

This edition will help the dental team to have the recent, up-to-date, necessary knowledge, guidance, encouragement that help to provide effective and safe conscious sedation. This book updates the original volume (1st edition in 2004) in line with current United Kingdom (UK) guidance on clinical practice and training.
