Sleeping for an Operation

A doctor gives a child special medicine so they sleep very deeply. During the operation, the child feels nothing and stays very still.

Examples

  • When you get a tooth fixed, the dentist may help you sleep so you feel no pain.
  • If you need a small operation, special medicine keeps you asleep and still.
