Eh, I actually know a few dental anesthesiologists who trained at my program and they're all just fine... Though there was only one in my year. Regardless, it's impossible to know what happened in this case and therefore impossible to know if all the training in the world would have made a difference.
I think we can all agree sedated kids without a protected airway with a surgeon working in the mouth in any setting, but esp dental office, is asking for trouble, and occasionally it happens.
Well, not sure that all do agree. This was was I was getting at before, is this common/standard of care for office based dental sedation? Some of my partners do kids at dental offices but they are intubating.
