NCT00902395

Brief Summary

There is lack of clinical trials on pediatric dental sedation. The purpose of this study is to test (using a randomized controlled trial design) the hypothesis that young children behavior during dental treatment improves with oral midazolam sedation. A further aim of this study was is explore whether behavior also changes over sessions needed to dental treatment completion.
