Dental anesthesia is a method used to control pain and help the patient relax during a dental procedure. The type of procedure to undergo, the overall health, the history of allergies, and anxiety level of the patient should be discussed by the dentist and patient before deciding which drugs to use. Working together, the dentist and patient can choose the most appropriate medication to use to make the dental visit as comfortable as possible.
