摘要
Among consultants in restorative dentistry there is a perceived need for sedation services to be provided in secondary care for restorative dentistry for selected patients and/or dental procedures. Currently only 41 out of 144 consultants (28%) in restorative dentistry provide treatment under sedation within the NHS - which leaves many primary care practitioners with limited opportunity to refer patients for this type of secondary care. Almost all consultants (94%) in restorative dentistry feel that specialist registrars in restorative dentistry should undergo training in sedation. This training need must be met if consultants in restorative dentistry are to provide conscious sedation services in secondary care in the future.
