Indications for general anesthesia such as severe dental disease or documented allergy to local anesthesia. General anesthesia carries risks so should only be used when necessary. 2. Guidelines for taking radiographs in pediatric dentistry including indications based on history and clinical findings. Radiographs help diagnose oral diseases but timing should consider each child's circumstances. 3.
