Oral sedation dentistry Oral sedation dentistry Oral sedation dentistry is a medical procedure involving the administration of oral sedative drugs, generally to facilitate a dental procedure and reduce patients fear and anxiety related to the experience. Oral sedation is one of the available methods of conscious sedation dentistry, along with inhalation sedation (nitrous oxide) and conscious intravenous sedation. Drugs which can be used for sedation include diazepam, triazolam, zaleplon, lorazepam, and hydroxyzine. Dental patients with generalized anxiety, belonephobia (fear of needles and sharp instruments), prior dental trauma, or generalized fear of the dentist can take oral medication in order to reduce their anxieties.
Irrational number if complex number exponentiation is used). An example that provides a simple constructive proof is The base of the left side is irrational and the right side is rational, so one must prove that the exponent on the left side, formula_17, is irrational. This is so because, by the formula relating logarithms with different bases, which we can assume, for the sake of establishing a contradiction, equals a ratio "m/n" of positive integers. Then formula_19 hence formula_20 hence formula_21 hence formula_22, which is a contradictory pair of prime factorizations and hence violates the fundamental theorem of arithmetic (unique prime factorization).
