We report on the use of informal hypnotic imagery in a group of children who were unable to accept dental extractions under inhalation sedation and local anesthesia. Over the last two and a half years, one hundred and seventy-nine children have been seen in a sedation clinic at Newcastle Dental Hospital. In thirty-four cases it was necessary to stop treatment and from this group, twenty children were selected for the use of hypnotic imagery. Treatment was successfully completed in sixteen children and all parents who completed a written questionnaire (twelve) reported they were happy with their child's treatment. Our preliminary findings show hypnotic imagery can be used successfully as an adjunct to inhalation sedation and conventional management skills for dental extractions in children.
我们报告了在一组无法在吸入镇静和局部麻醉下接受拔牙的儿童中使用非正式催眠意象的情况。在过去的两年半里，纽卡斯尔牙科医院的镇静诊所接待了179名儿童。在34例病例中，有必要停止治疗，从这组病例中，挑选了20名儿童使用催眠意象。16名儿童成功完成了治疗，所有填写了书面问卷的家长（12名）都表示对孩子的治疗感到满意。我们的初步研究结果表明，催眠意象可以成功地作为儿童拔牙时吸入镇静和传统管理技能的辅助手段。
