3. Distinguish among invasive and non-

invasive dental treatments

INVASIVE TREATMENT: tissues are disrupted

4. Clinical Cases: patient management

DENTAL MANAGEMENT:

1. Assess ASA patient´s status

Relevant medical history +
communication physician

2. Monitoring

3. Reduce stress
Clinical
4. Reduce pain: Local anesthetic cases
technique

5. Others
Remember to plan your clinical cases following these points:
•Look for the medicine information
•Invasive or non-invasive dental treatment
•Assess the ASA of your patient
•Should I speak with the patient´s Physician before to start the dental treatment?
Should I request for any investigation?
•Emergency appointment: Prescribe medicines before the dental treatment
infection, pain, fear.
•Monitoring (Don´t forget write the famous “risk levels”)
•How to reduce stress or fear
•Type of anesthesia
•Appointment time
•Position of the dental chair
•Medicines after the dental treatment
•Others (in relationship with the patients´ diseases: local measures of haemostasis…)
