Basic Considerations Of
Sedating Children In The
Dental Setting
Stephen Wilson DMD, MA, PhD

Options for Sedation
• Depth of sedation
– Minimal
– Moderate
– Deep
• Route of administration
– Enteral (oral, rectal)
– Parenteral
• Nasal
• Submucosal
• Intramuscular
• Intravenous
• You can get to any depth
using any of the routes
• The only thing that
“route” changes is how
fast you get there
– Oral – slowest
– Intravenous – fastest
• And it’s the dose that
determines the final
depth
And there is always GENERAL ANESTHESIA
Your State Practice Act
• Types of permits
– GA
– Parenteral
– Oral conscious sedation
• wouldn’t include nasal?!
•
Minor tranquilizers (i.e. hydroxyzine or
diazepam) can only be administered
outside of facility by responsible adult
• Supervised team capable of
reasonably assisting dentist with
procedures, problems, and
emergencies incident thereto
Arguably, the route
doesn’t really make any
difference in depth of
sedation, but just how fast
blood levels are attained
No evidence to show this
practice is beneficial!!!!
So why take a chance?
This could include:
• Laryngospasm
• Bronchospasm
• Depressed
respiratory/cardio
• Anaphylactic Rx
Anti-Anxiety Agents
• Purpose: knowing you will undergo a
procedure tomorrow, obsessing on it, causing
you prolonged anxiety
– Most likely doesn’t apply to toddlers
– Might be helpful for school-aged children, but is
such a practice evidenced based?
Drugs & Their Classes with Sedative
Properties
• General anesthetics (e.g., nitrous oxide, ketamine)
• Hypnotics
• Benzodiazepines
• Opioids
• Anti-histaminics
• α2 agonists (e.g., clonidine, dexmedetomidine)
Nitrous oxide
Pharmacologic class Inhalational agent (GA adjunct)
Timing Onset: within 2-4 minutes
Working time: as long as flowing
Advantages Mild sedation when used alone
Mild analgesic
Great distracting agent – wonderful for hypnotic suggestion
Good for some gaggers
Excellent for “settling” the patient (“titrator” for orally administered “fixed” agents)
Shortcomings Weak inhalational agent
Easy for child to dislodge nasal hood
Significant reduction in concentration at lung level
Dose Normally: 20% – 50% concentration
For “settling” difficult patients: 50% – 70% concentration (if not
successful after 10 minutes – cancel sedation?) - also don’t forget to reset to 50% or less after settled
Relative Contraindications:
• Chronic rhinitis
• Mouth breathers
• Recent eye surgery
• Otitis media
• Cystic fibrosis
• URI
• Some psychiatric patients
Benzodiazepines
(Midazolam is most frequently used)
• Benzodiazepine characteristics (profile varies depending on agent)
– Anxiolytic
– Sedative
– Hypnotic
– Anticonvulsant
– Muscle-relaxant
– Anterograde amnestic
– Provides no analgesia!
• Actions due to:
– Interaction with GABA receptors increasing their inhibitory actions
Benzodiazepines
(Midazolam is most frequently used)
• Midazolam (water-soluble)
– Orally & parenterally (e.g., nasally)
• Other notable effects
– Hypoventilation and associated hypoxemia.
– Interacts with other agents (e.g., erythromycin; cimetidine)
– Negligible cardiovascular effects in therapeutic doses
(otherwise cardiac depression)
– Can interact with other sedatives causing respiratory &
cardiovascular depression
Benzodiazepines
(Midazolam is most frequently used)
• “Angry child syndrome”
– Paradoxical hyperactivity occurs
– Attentional depression
– Agitated toxic psychosis
– Manic behavior
– Increased anxiety
– Hostility
– Rage
– Poor impulse control or aggressive behavior (more common in young children)
• It has become very popular today in pediatrics and pediatric dentistry.
Reference: Lexi-Comp
Midazolam (Versed)
The major risks associated with high doses are hypoventilation and associated hypoxemia. There are interactive effects when used in patients who are on other types of drugs such as erythromycin (producing unconsciousness) and thus should be used very cautiously under such circumstances.
In therapeutic doses, its effect on the cardiovascular system is negligible; however, higher doses produce decreased blood pressure and cardiac output.
Occasionally in children, the expected sedation does not occur, but rather, a paradoxical hyperactivity occurs and is called the “angry response”.

Midazolam may cause respiratory
depression/arrest; deaths and hypoxic
encephalopathy have resulted when
these were not promptly recognized
and treated appropriately; dose must
be individualized and patients must
be appropriately monitored; serious
respiratory adverse events occur
most often when midazolam is used
in combination with other CNS
depressants; severe hypotension and
seizures have been reported; risk may
be increased with concomitant
fentanyl use. Paradoxical reactions,
including hyperactive or aggressive
behavior, have been reported in both
adult and pediatric patients.

Meperidine (Demerol)
• Synthetic analgesic, sedative, antispasmodic agent.
• Liquid
–Non-palatable (bitter)
–Administered orally or parenterally (oral route is less
efficient)
–Metabolized in the liver
• Reversible with naloxone
• Behavior effects
–Mood change (euphoric or dysphoric)
–Affects several areas of brain
Meperidine (Demerol)
• Other notable effects
– Respiratory depression (less with oral route)
– Hypotension
– Analgesic
– Nausea & emesis (chemotrigger area of medulla)
– Histamine released from mast cells (localized
erythematous wheals, urticaria, and itching – care
w/asthma)
– Lowers seizure threshold
Reference: Lexi-Comp
Meperidine (Demerol)
A major drawback to this agent is its likelihood to cause respiratory depression and hypotension. This is particularly true when administered parenterally with a
lessened risk anticipated when delivered via the oral route. Its use in combination with other sedatives should be carefully assessed because of the additive or
synergistic properties of sedative agents.
Narcotics, including Demerol, should be used with caution with local anesthetics. The threshold level for seizures apparently is lowered when both are used in
combination.

Chloral hydrate (CH)
• Sedative/hypnotic
– Long history & relatively safe
– Margin of safety – dose dependent
• Liquid
– Non-palatable
– Administered orally or rectally
– Mucosal irritant (can induce larngospasms)
– Usual concentration - 100 mg/ml.
• Absorbed via GI tract
– Converted in liver to trichlorethanol (“alcohol” breath)
– Excreted by kidney
Chloral Hydrate - continued
• No reversal agent available
• Behavioral effects relatively consistent (cerebral cortex)
– Initial phase of hyperactivity/giddiness/irascibility
– Secondary phase of less activity & sleepiness
– Can induce sleep (higher doses, patient characteristics & state)
– Respiratory depression & coma
• Other notable effects:
– Cardiac arrhythmias (halothane like)
– Non-analgesic, possibly hyperalgesic
– Hypotonicity of tongue muscles (airway blockage)
– Gastric irritation, nausea, emesis
– Interactive drug effects (increase’s liver’s microsomial enzymes –
coumarin)
Reference: Lexi-Comp
Chloral Hydrate
Usually one’s sedation goals are the first 2 depths of sedation of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry guidelines (i.e., minimal and moderate sedation).
However, in small uncooperative children the optimal level of sedation is that of very light sleep from which one can be easily aroused with minimal verbal or
tactile stimulation. The therapeutic dose range that usually produces this type of effect, when used alone, in the majority of children is 30 to 50 mg/kg of body
weight. This dose also can cause hypotonicity of the muscles of the tongue causing it to fall backward against the posterior oro-pharyngeal structures. Appropriate
patient monitoring (pulse oximetry and capnography) is necessary because of the possibility that airway compromise due to hypotonicity of glossal muscles; deep
sleepand/ or some respiratory depression may occur.

Hypersensitivity to
chloral hydrate or any
component; hepatic
or renal impairment;
severe cardiac
disease.
Oral forms are also
contraindicated in
patients with gastritis,
esophagitis, or gastric
or duodenal ulcers.
Deaths and permanent neurologic
injury from respiratory
compromise have been reported
in children sedated with chloral
hydrate; respiratory obstruction
may occur in children with
tonsillar and adenoidal
hypertrophy, obstructive sleep
apnea, and Leigh's
encephalopathy, and in ASA
class III children; depressed
levels of consciousness may
occur;
chloral hydrate should not be
administered for sedation by
nonmedical personnel or in a
non-supervised medical
environment; sedation with
chloral hydrate requires careful
patient monitoring (Cote, 2000);
animal studies suggest that
chloral hydrate may depress the
genioglossus muscle and other
airway-maintaining muscles in
patients who are already at risk
for life-threatening airway
obstruction (eg, obstructive sleep
apnea)
Central nervous system:
Disorientation, sedation,
excitement
(paradoxical), dizziness,
fever, headache, ataxia
Dermatologic: Rash,
urticaria
Gastrointestinal: Gastric
irritation, nausea,
vomiting, diarrhea,
flatulence
Hematologic:
Leukopenia,
eosinophilia
Respiratory: Respiratory
depression when
combined with other
sedatives or narcotics
Chloral Hydrate & Eyes!
Be Careful
Adjunctive Agents
• Hydroxyzine (Atarax or Vistaril)
– Minor psychotherapeutic agent
– antispasmodic, antihistaminic, and sedative properties
– Relatively pleasant tasting agent (vanilla – Atarax; lemon – Vistaril)
– Popular in combination with CH and/or meperidine
– Slight depressant effects on the cardiovascular and respiratory systems
– Anti-arrhythmic properties and may cause bronchodilation
– Slight analgesic effects.
• Promethazine (Phenergan)
– Same as above
– May lower the seizure threshold and cause extrapyramidal responses
(i.e., limb movements/jerking.)

General Outcomes
• Sedated, safe & comfortable – the good
– Usually easy going child, light - moderate sedation (deep sedation is not “comfortable”)
– No need for papoose board; quality of work is good
– Chatting with child
• Sedated, disruptive & challenging – the bad
– Usually paradoxical emotional reactions, little likelihood of responding appropriately to your
suggestions
– Papoose board – “hold and go”; poor quality of work
– Frustrating
• Sedated, out of control – the ugly
– No likelihood of responding to your suggestions
– Papoose board used, but useless; “crap” dentistry
– Stated mildly: Exasperating!!!!
• Sedated & dangerous
– No response & can’t arouse
– Great likelihood of aspiration and laryngospasm!!!!
– Much better to simply use an anesthesiologist

Shortcomings of Agents
• Really no shortcomings of current agents
• Issue is the route of administration (oral)
– no possibility of titration (except with nitrous oxide)
• IV titration is really a 2-step process
– A given bolus is added to blood stream causing the effect
– Drug metabolizes, blood levels declines, patient becomes
light, another bolus is added
• IM, intranasal, and submucosal have same issues as
oral route
Drugs of the Future
• Probably not much different than today
• State regulations
– Ketamine – oral (but lots of emesis!!)
• May rely on narcotics and other agents given
via intranasal route
– Fentanyl
– Remifentanyl
– Clonidine

Sedation Article
A retrospective study of chloral hydrate, meperidine,
hydroxyzine, and midazolam regimens used to sedate children
for dental care.
Stephen Wilson, DMD, MA, PhD Jillian Easton Kirsty Lamb Robin Orchardson, BSc, BDS, PhD Paul Casamassimo, DDS, MS Dr. Wilson is a professor and director of the Postgraduate Pediatric Dentistry Program, The Ohio State University & Columbus Children’s Hospital,Columbus, Ohio; Jillian Easton is a dental student at Glasgow Dental Hospital and School, University of Glasgow, Glasgow, Scotland UK; Kirsty Lamb is a dental student at Glasgow Dental Hospital and School, University of Glasgow, Glasgow, Scotland UK; Dr. Orchardson is a professor at the Institute of Biomedical & Life Sciences, Laboratory of Human Anatomy, University of Glasgow, Scotland UK; and Dr. Casamassimo is a professor and chair, Section of Pediatric Dentistry, The Ohio State University & Columbus Children’s Hospital, Columbus, Ohio. Correspond with Dr. Wilson at wilson.42@osu.edu Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective study was twofold: a) to examine the behavior and physiology of pre-school children each sedated with 1 of 3 drug regimens based on patient age, dental needs, and pre-operative clinical impression; and b) to determine the association between pre-operative behaviors to the behavior and physiology of the sedated children. Method: Records of more than 600 patients sedated at Columbus Children’s Hospital dental clinic over a two-year period were culled for patients who ranged in age from 2 to 5 years of age and had received one of three different drug regimens: a) chloral hydrate and hydroxyzine (CH-H), b) chloral hydrate, meperidine, and hydroxyzine (CH-D-H), or c) midazolam (M). A minimum of 300 patients (100/drug regimen) were randomly selected. The standard sedation sheet used in all sedations at the clinic included, among other factors, pre-operative assessments of patient behavior, interaction, and cooperation. Physiological and behavioral variables during the intraoperative sedation periods were also available. These periods included initial baseline vitals, vitals following drug administration, topical and local drug administration, rubber dam placement, and a minimum of the first 15 minutes of restorative procedures. The three drug regimens were compared for these variables. Data were entered into SPSS for data analysis using one-way ANOVA, Chi-square, regression analysis, and descriptive statistics. Results: The results indicated significant mean differences in patient age, weight, and duration by drug regimen (F=20.3, P<0 .001="" 0.001="" 0.32="" 0.4="" 1.="" 10.="" 100="" 108="" 109=""

Correspond with Dr. Wilson at wilson.42@osu.edu Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective study was twofold: a) to examine the behavior and physiology of pre-school children each sedated with 1 of 3 drug regimens based on patient age, dental needs, and pre-operative clinical impression; and b) to determine the association between pre-operative behaviors to the behavior and physiology of the sedated children. Method: Records of more than 600 patients sedated at Columbus Children’s Hospital dental clinic over a two-year period were culled for patients who ranged in age from 2 to 5 years of age and had received one of three different drug regimens: a) chloral hydrate and hydroxyzine (CH-H), b) chloral hydrate, meperidine, and hydroxyzine (CH-D-H), or c) midazolam (M). A minimum of 300 patients (100/drug regimen) were randomly selected. The standard sedation sheet used in all sedations at the clinic included, among other factors, pre-operative assessments of patient behavior, interaction, and cooperation. Physiological and behavioral variables during the intraoperative sedation periods were also available. These periods included initial baseline vitals, vitals following drug administration, topical and local drug administration, rubber dam placement, and a minimum of the first 15 minutes of restorative procedures. The three drug regimens were compared for these variables. Data were entered into SPSS for data analysis using one-way ANOVA, Chi-square, regression analysis, and descriptive statistics. Results: The results indicated significant mean differences in patient age, weight, and duration by drug regimen (F=20.3, P<0 .001="" 0.001="" 0.32="" 0.4="" 1.="" 10.="" 100="" 108="" 109=""
