  • Title: Conscious sedation: an alternative to general anesthesia.
    Author: Bennett CR.
    Journal: J Dent Res; 1984 Jun; 63(6):832-3. PubMed ID: 6588069.
    Abstract:
    Conscious sedation, a drug-induced state in which the conscious patient is rendered free of anxiety and apprehension, may be a suitable alternative to general anesthesia when coupled with the judicious application of local anesthesia. In this manner both aspects of pain - perception and reaction - may be effectively controlled.
