The study aimed to investigate commonly prescribed corticosteroids in children undergoing full-mouth dental management under general anesthesia. A single-centered retrospective study among pediatric patients treated under general anesthesia of the age group of 0-13 years. The sample size is 124. Data were collected and tabulated. Data were statistically analyzed using the SPSS software version 23. Chi-square test and Pearson correlation were done using the software and < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. The results show that 79.67% commonly prescribed dexamethasone, whereas 20.33% use hydrocortisone, providing the age groups between 0 and 3 has higher prescribing of corticosteroids. From this study, it is concluded that since the value was more than 0.05, there is no significant statistical difference that has been analyzed. Dexamethasone is the commonly prescribed corticosteroid in children undergoing full-mouth rehabilitation under GA, followed by hydrocortisone.
