Summary

This study looked at 85 children (ages 2-18) having dental procedures under general anesthesia. Researchers monitored heart rate and blood pressure to see if pulling the tongue (lingual retraction) causes sudden drops. The goal is to understand this reflex better so dental teams can keep kids safe during treatment.
