Treating children's teeth in their sleep: 5 most popular questions

Dental treatment for children in their sleep is modern, safe and not at all scary

Even small children have many important and responsible things to do: they must study, explore the world, play, develop and grow up healthy. And it is very important that toothache does not distract them and prevent them from eating well. Therefore, if it is present, you should immediately go to the dentist. And if your child is terribly afraid of dental treatment or is simply capricious, come to the Natadent children's clinic. Your baby has nothing to fear here, because dental treatment for children while they sleep is one of the main areas of our work.

Children have a more difficult time in the dental chair than adults - it is difficult for them to sit in one place for more than 15 minutes. Therefore, they experience discomfort even if the treatment occurs without pain. Medication-induced sleep during dental treatment for a child allows you to avoid discomfort. The baby just sleeps, and the dentist gets the opportunity to work calmly, thanks to which he can treat several teeth at a time.

Why do children dream about teeth? Dream interpretation

Teeth in a dream symbolize change.
As a rule, the context of the dream helps determine whether it is for the better or for the worse. Healthy and straight teeth in a dream mean well-being both in business and in personal life. Uneven, diseased teeth promise troubles and losses. As for children's teeth, this is in any case a good sign. For example, if you dreamed of a child’s tooth falling out, then new acquisitions await you. If your baby is teething in your dream, this portends good luck and development.

How does dental treatment occur in a dream?

The treatment process proceeds as usual, but the child sleeps during the procedure. In addition to the dentist, an anesthesiologist is involved in the process, monitoring the condition of the little patient and monitoring the depth of his sleep. Typically, dental treatment for children during sleep lasts 1-2 hours, and all diseased teeth are cured in one visit (without anesthesia, it is rarely possible to cure more than one).

Typically, medication-assisted sleep treatment requires two visits and includes the following steps:

  1. Initial examination. Having assessed the condition of the teeth, the child’s mood and other factors, the dentist and anesthesiologist determine what is better – general anesthesia or sedation, and set a date for treatment.
  2. Preparation. Before the procedure, the child should not eat for 6 hours. If he does not tolerate hunger well, 4-5 hours before the visit you can eat something filling, but easily digestible.
  3. Introduction to medicated sleep. The anesthesiologist conducts a second examination, after which the small patient is positioned in a chair and a mask is put on to deliver the anesthetic drug mixed with air. When he falls asleep, the mask is removed and a special tube is installed that does not interfere with the doctor’s work.
  4. Direct treatment. While the dentist is working on the teeth, the anesthesiologist monitors the child’s condition, adjusting the supply of the drug if necessary.
  5. Awakening. After the procedure is completed, the supply of the drug stops, and the child wakes up almost immediately. After about half an hour he becomes alert enough to go home.

Please note that dental treatment during sleep for children may involve both general anesthesia and sedation. The choice is made by the doctor, who determines which method is preferable in a given situation. Don't worry, our doctors always choose the method that is best for the child. This takes into account both the complexity of the treatment and the emotional state of the little patient.

Benefits of dental treatment during sleep

Adults often do not realize that children feel pain more intensely and acutely. They also have a much stronger gag reflex during manipulations in the oral cavity, and the need to sit motionless for more than 15 minutes is an insurmountable test for a child. This is why drug-induced sleep in dentistry for children has become such a common practice. The use of general anesthesia has a number of significant advantages:

  • The child tolerates even quite complex treatment easily, without pain and suffering;
  • parents do not have to persuade him and experience unnecessary stress;
  • the dentist receives optimal conditions for effective work;
  • You can treat several teeth during a visit;
  • The child does not develop a fear of the dental office.

In pediatric dentistry, sleep therapy is becoming increasingly popular as it allows the dentist to work much more efficiently. The patient does not fidget or wince, so the doctor can concentrate on his task. And after the procedure is completed, the child will wake up with a good mood and healthy teeth.

How is the treatment carried out?

First of all, doctors prepare the baby - they get to know him, tell him about teeth beaming in a playful way, turn on the baby’s favorite cartoons so that he can relax and stop being afraid. Next, the baby is allowed to breathe oxygen - they put on a mask so that he gets used to it and understands that there is nothing to worry about. After a couple of minutes, Sevoran gas is supplied. Since the gas is highly concentrated, the immersion in anesthesia occurs very quickly - literally in the first few breaths.

After putting the little patient under anesthesia, the doctor begins treatment. Throughout the entire treatment period, the assistant monitors vital signs using special equipment - temperature, pulse, blood pressure, heart function. After treatment is completed, the little patient is gently brought out of anesthesia. After recovery from anesthesia, breathing is restored immediately, the baby wakes up, and within 15-30 minutes leaves the clinic in a good mood and feeling well.

Using dream books for interpretation

In the old days, it was believed that tooth loss promised a person serious illness or even quick death. Their growth, on the contrary, was regarded as a sure sign that everything would soon come to order. However, the discussion was about the teeth of the sleeping person himself, while the infant incisors were kept silent.

Collection of Astromeridian and Veles

You can decipher the meanings of children's teeth in a dream with the help of ancient and modern interpreters. This list includes at least two sources:

  • Astromeridian. According to the authors of this dream book, if a child grows teeth in a dream, then the brightest and most joyful events in reality await the adult. Moreover, it does not matter at all whether it is his child or not. If, on the contrary, the teeth fell out, then in this case there is no cause for concern. Replacing baby incisors in a dream symbolizes the beginning of a new life stage in reality, which can turn out to be very prosperous for the sleeper. Things will be completely different when, according to the plot of the night vision, the teeth of the dreamer’s child fell out. This is a sure sign that very soon he will commit great stupidity.
  • Small dream book of Veles. In this ancient interpreter, the appearance of new teeth in a baby’s mouth was deciphered as a harbinger of imminent childbirth for people of reproductive age or the clarification of some serious misunderstanding and the establishment of justice.

The sensations that the dreamer experienced before and during awakening are also of great importance for the interpretation of the image .

If even after a not very good sleep your soul is absolutely calm, then you should hardly expect serious shocks in real life.

When to choose dental treatment in a dream

Most often, the following factors become indications for dental treatment in children’s sleep:

  • age up to 4 years (before the age of four it is more difficult to come to an agreement with a child, promising him a reward for good behavior);
  • the child is terrified of dental treatment and does not give in to persuasion;
  • the treatment process is expected to be complex and lengthy;
  • Several teeth need to be treated in one visit;
  • there are diseases of the nervous or cardiovascular system or other conditions in which stress is contraindicated for the child;
  • there are neurological disorders that make communication with the child difficult.

Even in the absence of these indications, you can ask that your child be treated with general anesthesia or nitrous oxide sedation if he is afraid or you do not want him to experience discomfort.

Meaning of the image

Not all dreams are prophetic, turning out to be only a reflection of some events from real life.

For example, if a new mother dreamed that her child’s teeth were coming out, then there are personal experiences or joys directly related to the baby’s physical development.

Sleep: the child has grown teeth

But if nothing like this happened, then it’s worth thinking about the secret meaning of what you saw at night, remembering that dreams cannot be interpreted literally.

In addition, the significance of the image will be influenced by the day of the week on which it appeared to the sleeper’s attention.

So, according to astrologers, the semantic content of a dream will change depending on the following parameters:

  • on Monday you have dreams that tend to come true only if the birthday person sees them;
  • Tuesday dreams come true in the next 7-10 days;
  • if you dreamed of an image on Wednesday, then it will definitely come true;
  • on Thursday you dream of empty, meaningless visions;
  • Friday dreams can predict the future;
  • Saturday dreams come true half the time;
  • the Sunday image will turn out to be prophetic only if the dreamer does not tell anyone about it.

Once you are convinced that the dream about teeth is truly prophetic, you can safely begin to interpret it.

But you need to take into account the fact that only white healthy incisors are considered a good harbinger .

Reviews

Any parent would prefer that his child does not experience unnecessary pain and stress, so he tries to choose the best dental clinic with good equipment and experienced doctors. In Moscow today there are not many clinics licensed to use general anesthesia, so there are situations when nitrous oxide sedation is imposed under the guise of general anesthesia.

The Natadent clinic has the necessary licenses, thanks to which it can provide your child with high-quality dental treatment without unnecessary suffering. To make sure of the quality of the services provided, just read the reviews left by the children and their parents who visited us.

LEAVE FEEDBACK

How safe is sleep therapy?

Of course, parents are primarily concerned about the safety of the procedure. We can say with complete confidence that this procedure is safe and is allowed even for infants. The gas does not inhibit the vital functions of the body, and is completely eliminated through breathing within 5-7 minutes after the end of treatment. The entire process is controlled by high-precision equipment and a team of qualified specialists who monitor the body’s indicators and regulate the depth of anesthesia. All this guarantees comfortable, painless and quick dental treatment for a child.

Remember, regular visits to a qualified dentist and timely dental treatment are the key to a healthy smile for your child in the future. Health and happiness to you and your children!

Attention!

Why do you dream if a child is teething and he bites you painfully? The dream book advises to prepare for serious mental pain.

Did you dream that you were trying to dodge your baby’s sharp teeth? A deceitful friend is preparing a cunning trap for you. It’s bad to see a baby showing its baby teeth. A witchcraft program is working against you to the detriment of your luck and health (damage, curse, etc.).

child bites

Hearing clanging or grinding of teeth in a dream can mean receiving bad news. If a newly emerged incisor falls out in the night, then you will suffer due to your own stupidity or carelessness.
