• Dental anxiety is one of the most prevalent
  issues that dentists come across amongst the
  patients in their day-to-day practice, especially
  in toddlers. Fear of dental treatment or
  odontophobia at times prevent patients from
  seeking the treatment, which eventually end up
  aggravating the problem.

  the patients comfortable enough so that they do
  not fear of dental treatment whenever they visit
  the dental office.

  success of the treatment.

• When general anesthesia is usually recommended

  kids those who are extremely apprehensive,
  anxious, or born with developmental disorders.
• At times, extensive dental treatment requires
  longer duration that makes it quite difficult for
  kids to open up their mouths for prolonged
  periods of time. Rather than completing the
  significant dental treatment in multiple visits,
  general anesthesia makes it viable to complete
  the dental treatment in the same visit with not
  even a single memory of the procedure.
