All clinicians who administer intravenous sedation should undergo appropriate training according to recognised guidelines. Such guidelines are now established in New Zealand through the joint endeavours of the New Zealand Dental Association, Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons, and the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists. It is essential that there be acceptable staff training and experience, that physical facilities and arrangements for emergency care are adequate, and that parameters for patient selection are adhered to. Adequate knowledge of pharmacology and the therapeutic indications for specific sedative drugs is necessary, and sedation procedures must be undertaken with appropriate monitoring. There are significant medico-legal aspects to this area of dental practice and these should be well recognised by all practitioners.
所有实施静脉镇静的临床医生都应根据公认的指南接受适当培训。新西兰牙科协会、澳大利亚皇家牙科学院以及澳大利亚和新西兰麻醉师学院共同努力，现已在新西兰制定了此类指南。必须要有可接受的员工培训和经验，要有足够的急救物理设施和安排，并且要遵守患者选择标准。必须充分了解药理学以及特定镇静药物的治疗适应症，并且镇静程序必须在适当的监测下进行。牙科实践的这一领域存在重大的医疗法律问题，所有从业者都应充分认识到这些问题。
