Both regional block and infiltration techniques are considered the first choice injections for anaesthetising the mandibular teeth. Different techniques are chosen based on different factors: Patient age [5] Infiltration anaesthesia is a preferable method to anaesthetise deciduous/primary teeth in children.
Infiltration analgesia is deposition of an analgesic (pain-relieving) drug close to the apex of a tooth so that it can diffuse to reach the nerve entering the apical foramina. [1] It is the most routinely used in dental local treatment.
Dental anesthesiology is the specialty of dentistry that deals with the advanced use of general anesthesia, sedation and pain management to facilitate dental procedures.. In the United States, a dentist anesthesiologist is a dentist who has successfully completed an accredited postdoctoral anesthesiology residency program of three or more years duration, in accordance with the Commission on ...
Local anesthesia is any technique to induce the absence of sensation in a specific part of the body, [1] generally for the aim of inducing local analgesia, i.e. local insensitivity to pain, although other local senses may be affected as well. It allows patients to undergo surgical and dental procedures with
Inferior alveolar nerve block (abbreviated to IANB, and also termed inferior alveolar nerve anesthesia or inferior dental block) is a nerve block technique which induces anesthesia (numbness) in the areas of the mouth and face innervated by one of the inferior alveolar nerves which are paired on the left and right side.
Articaine is a dental amide-type local anesthetic. It is the most widely used local anesthetic in a number of European countries [ 2 ] and is available in many countries. It is the only local anaesthetic to contain a thiophene ring , meaning it can be described as 'thiophenic'; this conveys lipid solubility.
Pulp capping is a technique used in dental restorations to protect the dental pulp, after it has been exposed, or nearly exposed during a cavity preparation, from a traumatic injury, or by a deep cavity that reaches the center of the tooth, causing the pulp to die. [1]
The risk of nerve injury in relation to mandibular dental implants is not known but it is a recognised risk requiring the patient to be warned. [10] If an injury occurs urgent treatment is required. The risk nerve injury in relation deep dental injections has a risk of injury in approximately 1:14,000 with 25% of these remaining persistent.
