Patients decide on the basis of pain-free treatment whether they will come back to a practice or recommend it to others. Pain control is therefore a marketing tool and is still the "business card" of every dental practice. The authors of this book aim to provide assistance for individual and safe pain-free dental treatment, taking into account the increasing number of high-risk patients. They provide a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the basics of anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology; the medical history; and the various options for pain management as well as the accompanying dental medication. The book concludes with a discussion of possible complications. Each chapter ends with questions that check the reader’s knowledge, which are answered in the Appendix.
