Introduction to anesthesiology

Anesthesiology in dental practice is the science of inducing and maintaining a reversible loss of sensation to enable painless dental procedures. Mastering its core concepts—definitions, types of anesthesia, basic pharmacology, safety principles, and monitoring—ensures safe patient care and is a key component of the NUC CCMAS, NBTE, and NCCE exams.
