Dental Surgery?

Hi my daughter is 4 and will be having dental surgery next month, the dr said it's because she needs a lot of fillings and she is too young to understand that she can't move while they are being filled in and will be scared. She said that it's the best way to have done. We have been waiting for over 1 yr to get this date and now I am nervous.


Has anyone any experience. Did u have any problems?

Dental Surgery?
I am a Dental hygienist, and we recommend this tx a lot. she will be great. It is a very common procedure. It's better that she not remember anything, and to have a good experience. Children her age cannot sit still for a long period of time. She will feel like the procedure went fast and painless. I am assuming she will have general anesthetic/ or nitrous oxide(laughing gas)...It is worse for a child her age to have a bad experience that makes her weary and frightened of the dentist, so that she will think negatively about it and be fearful. this way she will remember that it wasn't bad at all...and feel calm about it..hope this helps. She should sail through this...honestly no need to worry...I have helped with thousands of these procedures
Reply:i had a surgery done and just relax she will be fine just buy her something little to cheer her up =]
