AB - This article is aimed at dentists who treat children under 6 years of age for acute dental care requiring
sedation, and where physical restraint may be necessary. Physical restraint means the occasional holding
of the child so that invasive procedures can be performed, with little risk of inflicting physical and/or
mental harm. Where circumstances require sedation and physical restraint, emphasis should be placed on
the dentist’s preoperative information to the guardian for consent. It is crucial that the guardian decides on
an active or passive role regarding support of the child. The recording of this information follows lege
artis treatment regulations.
