Guest guest Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I just spent a couple hours going through the archives looking for info on anesthesia for our kids and found a lot of good stuff, but I just wanted to clarify a few things if anyone can help. My daughter is apraxic and 3 years, 3 months old. She also has mild hypotonia resulting in fine and gross motor delays. She has some tooth decay that I'm concerned about. I know that if I bring her to the dentist they will recommend repair under anesthesia. Questions: I get that nitrous oxide is bad, but is it only bad if she already has a B12 deficiency? The " -aine " drugs are bad .. does that include lidocaine, which seems so standard in dental procedures? Chloral hydrate .. Ok, or not ok? Anyone out there whose apraxic child has had dental work, what kind of anesthesia were they under? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
