Is it safe to fill dental cavities under anesthesia?
Patient: My daughter has minor cavities and they want to do work on while she is unconsious/out with the gas,is it safe for such a young girl?...what are the risks?and what questions should i ask to insure my daughter is SAFE? I was reading,and i read that oxygen mixed with another gas is the most recomended,over the one which is not mixed because i believe from the mercury, Doctor: Hello,  Read your query as your daughter has minor cavities in teeth this can be done with anaesthesia also you can discuss with your dentist if it is possible to go and if your dentist advised you to do under anaesthesia then it is safe and harmless procedure with no risk dont worry go for treatment .Hope this will help you.
