I was 6 yrs old and didnt do all that clinging to mom. I was told zero. A mask was used and horrible smelling gas. I thought i was suffocating. It was horrible tho less than a minute if im correct. Id never want gas again.
I was 8 and I was taken to “Pediatric Dentistry of Keller” for teeth extraction, when we arrived at the room they layed me down on a chair and they paraded on me and out the gas mask so I couldn’t take it off, I felt like I was dying
When I was in my early-to-mid 'teens I lived in Yorkshire and that was how things were always done. In my case, five times in two years. The bonus of having a gas induction was that you got the day off school and a rare morning lie-in through the requirement to skip breakfast. You walked - hungry, thirsty and always terrified - into the operating room wearing your street clothes (and shoes!), the nurse would put a tatty plastic bib over your shoulders and then the dentist would give you "a quick run-down of what's going to happen". At this point you got your first whiff of the gas and knew that the (unseen) anaesthetist was fiddling with the mask behind your back. The dentist would encourage you to "Relax and take nice deep breaths" before withdrawing from outside your line of vision. After a few seconds spent staring in terror at the white tiled wall in front of you, its windows helpfully covered by closed Venetian Blinds, you'd be thinking "Why don't they just get on with it?" At which point the mask would finally go on ...
@@KempSimon Was this at a hospital or dental surgery? I can understand your shoes staying on at the dentist when having general anesthetic, but not in hospital. I was put out with gas at the dentist in the early 90s. Had a massive excitement phase in the chair as the gas took hold, thrashed about like I was possessed, and both my trainers ended up on the floor. To top it all off, I took ages to wake up from the anesthetic. Had private minor medical treatment on my head under a local last year. Had to take my shoes off for that.
James is probably thinking "Yes, and she's not a "sleepy doctor" she's an anaesthetist". Before I was non-consensually put under gas, at the tender age of thirteen, to have four healthy but surplus teeth extracted, my family dentist told me (in his heavy Yorkshire accent) that "We're just going to hold this cup over your nose whilst you drift off to sleep" and there was I thinking "It's NOT a "cup" it's a f*****g anaesthetic mask, so why don't you be honest with me and call it by its proper name?" Not being completely stupid, I noticed when I walked into the operating room that the dentist was standing directly in front of the gas bottles, to stop me from seeing them and thus becoming distressed, but the joke was that the frosted glass surgery door had been left wide open when the Nurse was leading me from the waiting room to the toilet ("Just to make yourself comfortable") so I glanced in and remembered everything - the treatment chair, the trolley with the black and blue gas bottles, the black rubber balloon and the shiny triangular mask itself, hanging at the end of its long corrugated rubber pipe. They must think that kids are completely thick! My peer group at school had already briefed me as to what to expect before, during and after my dental operation, using such terminology as "They'll get a professional anaesthetist in from the Royal Infirmary to gas you" and "The gas they'll give you is called Nembutal (sic). It smells quite pleasant and you'll go out like a light" and (with a knowing grin) "Going under the gas is as easy as anything. It's the coming round that's the difficult part".
@@candywilson3884 i was shaking before surgery so I went toliet three times then went to the surgery room. I chat with the nurse to hold my hand while in surgery so they put my sleep and they removed small piece of my gum. after surgery my legs were shaking and my mom was happy and told me to lay down. she removed the iv out and carried me to my dad car
Why was he leaning foreward with the .ask on we had to be tilted a bit then got the rubber smelling gas mask id rather have the black rubber mask than plastic rubbish
My sons got dental extractions tomorrow hope it goes as smooth as this video
How did it go? Hopefully, as smooth as the video!

Poor little James! I wonder if this was for real, or were they using actors to play the roles of mother and child?
I think it was an actor
I had surgery before
Sterile environment of an operating room, child under general anesthetic, and you didn't take his shoes off?
