Technically, no. You shouldn't feel anything because you are under anesthesia. Occasionally people do report that they have heard conversations or felt pressure but its very rare as well. There are different techniques and levels of anesthesia so ask your provider how deep is the anesthesia that they will provide?

Can I use dental floss for my 4 year old?
Yes, please do. ADA recommends to floss teeth when teeth begin to touch regardless of age. On the younger ones, I recommend to use floss picks. It makes it easier on everyone.

Hello,
Great question! The short answer is no there is no other way, brushing and flossing is the best way. It is very typical of kids that age to be fussy and be combative. My recommendation is to be creative with this task. There are several books and cartoons that talk about teeth and brushing which for kids brain is helpful in emulating. Trying making it a game, tell a story, reward them for allowing it. If these don't work, then you may try sitting down on the floor and have them between your legs gently holding them and brush their teeth. The key is to be persistent every night after a while they will cooperate.
Best of luck.
