I did temporary restorations for a 3 year old who requires 8 fillings in total(a lot) in my practice as the family is against the child going in for dental treatment under GA
While GA is the best option for the child and i explained this in detail to the parent, their reluctance meant that the child had to have the treamtent in the clinic.
The child did cope but I could only do temporary restoration compared to permanent restoration which could have been placed in theatre.
