How can we PREVENT pain

during dental treatment?

General Anesthesia

Local Anesthesia

General Anesthesia

GA requires administration of CNS-depressant drugs until the

patient loses consciousness

General anesthesia represents the controlled

loss of consciousness

Localanesthetic LA

When a local anesthetic is deposited near a nerve it must diffuse across the nerve membrane INTO the nerve to block nerve conduction

The traditional ‘Mandibular Block’ has amongst the LOWEST success rates

of all major nerve blocks in the human body

The experienced dentist administered the IANB by ‘feel’

Needle is advanced towards lingual aspect of body of mandible until bone is contacted.

Dr. ‘feels’ or ‘senses’ that the needle has contacted bone at the appropriate depth (based on years of clinical experience)

The most common reason for missing the IANB is depositing LA solution too low. (BELOW the mandibular foramen)

The ‘nerve’ is gone! A little higher is a little better
