Welcome to another episode of Every Day Oral Surgery! Today, we are joined by Jake Stucki to discuss some tips on using nitrous and oral sedation effectively. In this short episode, you’ll hear about the impetus for today’s topic, what could be happening when a patient says the nitrous isn’t working, and the pros and cons of using nitrous, as well as why you shouldn’t just crank it higher. We also discuss a potentially better method of sedation than anesthesia, some of our experiences of using oral sedation, and the importance of using proper dosage, plus some tips for handling pediatric sedation and the importance of knowing who is a good candidate for what type of sedation. Finally, we mention why oral surgeons often avoid the use of nitrous. To hear all this and more, tune in now!
