The doctor performs general anesthesia surgery on a young patient.

Red Net Moment News July 15th (correspondent Zhou Rong) is on summer vacation. Every day, many children come to see " cavities " in the dental clinic of Changsha Maternal and Child Health Hospital, 7-year-old Dongdong (pseudonym) , is one of them. Yin Lin, the director of the dental department, examined Dongdong and found that not only did Dongdong have multiple deciduous teeth with deep caries, some of the teeth had developed small pustules, and even two newly erupted permanent teeth "" Black holes also appeared on Liulingya ".

After learning that the broken deciduous teeth cannot be replaced until the age of 10-12, and the permanent teeth that will not be replaced are also broken, this made Dongdong's parents worried, and they immediately stated that Dongdong's bad teeth would be replaced " Patch” OK. However, after an examination, it was found that Dongdong's "gag reflex" was very sensitive. He felt nauseated as soon as oral instruments were put into his mouth. It was difficult for him to complete even the most basic oral examination, let alone complicated treatment. However, he left his teeth alone. If this continues, the bad teeth will become more and more serious and will affect more new permanent teeth. This is how to do? After careful communication with the parents, Director Yin Lin of

finally provided Dongdong’s parents with a treatment method that was relatively comfortable, efficient and did not leave any "psychological shadow" - comprehensive treatment for children's dental disease under general anesthesia .

underwent systematic preoperative examination, and after anesthesia assessment passed, the operation went on as scheduled. anesthesiologist skillfully prepared the child for general anesthesia surgery, and kept a close eye on Dongdong's blood pressure, heart rate, blood oxygen saturation and other indicators to ensure safety. After a series of difficult and easy treatments, Dongdong's damaged deciduous teeth and permanent teeth were completely resolved at one time, and all teeth were protected against caries to the greatest extent possible.

When the treatment was over, Dongdong woke up quickly. After staying in the hospital for observation and rest, he was very active soon. After the doctor's evaluation, all indicators met the day surgery discharge standards, and he was successfully discharged from the hospital on the same day after the operation.

In my country, the incidence of dental caries is relatively high in children, with the dental caries rate reaching 70.9% in 5-year-old children. Many children who have loved sweets since childhood and have not brushed their teeth well will often develop "cavities" soon after their deciduous teeth erupt. However, whether it is dental fillings, extractions, or root canal treatment, it is really difficult for children to do so. Endurance causes the disease to be delayed, treatment becomes more difficult, and quality of life is affected. In the process of treating children with dental caries, the biggest difficulty lies in the child's cooperation. Especially for young children (less than 4 years old) or children with delayed intellectual development and autism, it is difficult for them to cooperate with doctors for complex oral treatments. In the past, bundling treatment not only caused children to cry, struggle and avoid treatment, but the treatment effect was also unsatisfactory. In severe cases, it would cause psychological trauma to the children, causing them to suffer from psychological diseases such as "dental phobia". The "Comprehensive Treatment of Children's Dental Diseases under General Anesthesia" jointly carried out by the Department of Stomatology and the Anesthesia Operating Room of Changsha Maternal and Child Health Hospital has completely relieved the concerns of young parents. The general anesthesia comprehensive treatment of lower dental disease used by the hospital is mostly day surgery. They will be admitted to the hospital on the same day and treated on the same day. After the treatment is completed, they will be observed and their vital signs assessed. If they meet the discharge criteria, they can be discharged from the hospital on the same day.
