“…In 2018, an epidemiological questionare study was conducted on north Indian children of age group 2-5 years, parents or guardian (Himachal Pradesh) to find out the awareness, knowledge and attitude towards conscious sedation. It concludes that the parents feel sedation is safe in the dental office [17] . In the present clinical study, patient and parental preference of one technique over the other was recorded after the child underwent dental treatment utilising both the techniques.…”

“…The acceptability of this technique by both children and their parents can be a possible concern to the practicing dentist. In the process of choosing to get the dental treatment with or without nitrous oxide inhalation sedation, the parent and the child's perception of this pharmacological intervention is of paramount importance [2,3] . A number of clinical studies have been published which compare conscious sedation and combinations of cognitive behavioural strategies for their effectiveness, but the literature on acceptance of conscious sedation by parents and children, especially in our country is not adequate [1,4] .…”

Aim: To Compare patient and parental preference between nitrous oxide sedation and conventional behaviour management technique for dental treatment. Material and Methods: This cross-over split mouth study design was performed on 30 children (6-12 years old) who require a bilateral treatment involving inferior alveolar nerve block. 15 children were enrolled in a group A & 15 children in a group B. Thereafter, the outcome of preference of technique was assessed by parent and child after both techniques were performed. Results: The collected data was statistically analysed. The majority of children and parents preferred nitrous oxide inhalation sedation to conventional behaviour management techniques. Conclusion: Study concludes that nitrous oxide was preferred by both children and their parents over conventional behavior management techniques.

“…In this context, a study by Bhandari et al explored parental opinions, attitudes, and knowledge regarding conscious sedation and mask acceptance while delivering nitrous oxide sedation [ 22 ]. While generally perceiving sedation as safe, Indian parents displayed limited awareness about intranasal sedation using MAD as a BMT.…”

Background Dental anxiety in children often necessitates sedation for effective treatment. Different methods of sedation have proved to be beneficial. However, intranasal sedation provides a needleless, rapid drug delivery method that bypasses hepatic metabolism. Intranasal sedative drugs can be delivered using a mucosal atomization device (MAD). This study aimed to find the opinions, beliefs, and existing knowledge of parents and children regarding intranasal sedation and the method of drug delivery through MAD. Materials and methods The study comprised 50 parents, aged 20 to 50, who came in with a single child, aged five to nine years. In separate rooms, parents and kids were each shown a video about the use of the intranasal sedation technique with MAD as a pharmaceutical help during routine dental procedures. After the video presentation, each participant was required to complete a pretested self-made questionnaire with 21 questions and multiple-choice options. The chi-square test was used in the statistical analysis of the completed questionnaires (P < 0.05). Paired t-test was used for behavior assessment of the children before and after intranasal sedation. Results A significant correlation between parental socioeconomic status and acceptance of intranasal sedation was observed. Parents with higher education levels exhibited a greater level of acceptance (P = 0.000). Parents whose children had prior dental experiences were more likely to view intranasal sedation as a safe option (P = 0.038). Additionally, a significant proportion of previously sedated children expressed willingness to undergo treatment using intranasal sedation. Evaluation of children's behavior before and after treatment revealed a notable improvement, indicating the effectiveness of intranasal sedation (P = 0.000). Conclusion The study thoroughly investigated how parents and children view intranasal sedation via MAD. It revealed a positive perception of safety and trust among parents regarding this method for pediatric dental procedures.
