Dentistry sometimes requires potentially painful procedures in conscious patients. As a result, practitioners occasionally
encounter patients who are experiencing serious anxiety and fear. Because stress can cause systemic complications,
patients may be better treated under intravenous sedation with madazolam, particularly for oral surgical procedures.
Midazolam is a benzodiazepine compound that is widely used in dental practice for its effects of sedation, amnesia, and
lessening of anxiety. Midazolam has proved to be very successful in reducing anxiety and stress pre-, peri-, and
postoperatively with no significant effect on the vital signs of a healthy patient.
We perfomed a study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of midazolam during outpatient surgical procedures. And
we concluded that midazolam is a good sedative agent in proving favorable antegrade amnesia, as well as reduced axiety
and fear of pain during surgical procedures. this suggests that midazolam may be used routinely in outpatient surgical
procedures. Monitering of oxygen saturation, because, is essential in preventing severe hypoxia during procedures.
