Before undergoing any type of dental surgery, it is important to consult with your dentist to discuss your medical history, health habits, and lifestyle. This is also a great opportunity to ask questions and understand what to expect. If you choose to receive intravenous sedation, you will need to attend a preoperative appointment prior to the surgery. This appointment is used to collect vital information and data in order to prepare for the day of the procedure. One potential explanation for heart disorders is the experience of fear, anxiety, or pain during dental treatment.
Local dental anesthesia is commonly used to prevent pain during dental treatments, which contributes to the comfort of patients and makes it easier for both the patient and dentist. General dentists should be aware of the possible adverse effects associated with administering local dental anesthesia. Additionally, local dental anesthesia can be used as a diagnostic tool to differentiate between dental pain and temporomandibular joint dysfunction. Adverse reactions have also been reported after administering local dental anesthesia for endodontic treatments (11.5%), restorations (10.3%), and training in local anesthesia from student to student (1.3%). The care environment was specified in 66 out of 78 articles (84.6%), and adverse effects occurred in general dental clinics (53.9%), oral and maxillofacial surgery departments of hospitals (20.5%), university dental clinics (6.4%), and a military clinical center (1.3%).
