Your 28-year-old, female patient, is scheduled for her first periodontal debridement appointment. She is a new patient to your office having been seen last week for her initial examination. The patient informs you that this is not an experience she enjoys, since she has had unpleasant dental experiences in the past. Her medical history is negative, but today she seems unusually anxious and complains of being dizzy and lightheaded.

Following the anesthetic injection, you begin the debridement procedure, and she begins to breathe quite rapidly and deeply. Your patient cannot seem to catch her breath. She complains of a tingling feeling in her face, particularly around her mouth. You notice that the fingers on her hands are beginning to tense and curl. Her skin is pale, moist, and cool. 1.
