Considerations for Pediatric Local Anesthesia

Pain is one of the reasons for patient absence and stress. The use of anesthesia eliminates the sensation of pain in dental treatments, reducing the stress of the pediatric patient.

In pediatric dentistry, it is important to know the weight and body mass of the infant to calculate the correct dose of anesthesia, and good behavior management of the pediatric patient.
