Abstract: The purpose of this prospective, randomized study was to compare the degree of pulpal anesthesia
obtained with the conventional inferior alveolar, the Gow‐Gates, and the Vazirani‐Akinosi techniques in vital,
asymptomatic teeth. With a crossover design, 40 subjects received all 3 techniques in a random manner by
using 3.6 ml of 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine at 3 separate appointments. An electric pulp tester
was used to test for anesthesia in 3‐minute cycles for 60 minutes of the first molars, first premolars, and lateral
incisors. Anesthesia was considered successful when 2 consecutive 80 readings were obtained within 15 min‐
utes, and the 80 reading was continuously sustained through the 60th minute. The ranges of successful anes‐
thesia were as follows: inferior alveolar technique, 25%– 62%; Gow‐Gates technique, 16%– 44%; and for the
Vazirani‐ Akinosi technique, 13%–50%. There was no significant difference (P >.05) in success among the 3 tech‐
niques. However, the Gow‐Gates and Vazirani‐Akinosi techniques resulted in a statistically slower onset of pul‐
pal anesthesia than the inferior alveolar nerve block. We concluded that in vital, asymptomatic teeth and for
the subjects who achieved lip numbness, the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block is similar to the Gow‐
Gates and Vazirani‐Akinosi techniques regarding anesthetic success but has a faster onset of pulpal anesthesia.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the anesthetic efficacy of the supplemental intraosseous
injection, using the X‐tip system in an apical location, in mandibular posterior teeth diagnosed with irreversible
pulpitis when the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block failed. Thirty‐three emergency patients, diagnosed
with irreversible pulpitis of a mandibular posterior tooth, received an inferior alveolar nerve block and had
moderate to severe pain on endodontic access. The X‐tip system was used to administer 1.8 ml of 2% lidocaine
with 1:100,000 epinephrine. The X‐tip injection site was 3‐ to 7‐mm apical to the mucogingival junction of the
affected tooth. Success of the X‐tip intraosseous injection was defined as none or mild pain on endodontic
access or initial instrumentation. The results of this study demonstrated that 6 of 33 (18%) X‐tip injections
resulted in backflow of anesthetic solution into the oral cavity; none were successful in obtaining anesthesia.
Twenty‐seven of the remaining 33 X‐tip injections (82%) were successful. We conclude that when the inferior
alveolar nerve block fails to provide profound pulpal anesthesia, the X‐tip sytem, when used in an apical loca‐
tion and when there was no backflow of the anesthetic solution into the oral cavity, was successful in achiev‐
ing pulpal anesthesia in mandibular posterior teeth of patients presenting with irreversible pulpitis. (J Endod

Abstract: The purpose of this prospective, randomized, double blind study was to compare
the degree of pulpal anesthesia obtained with 0.5% bupivacaine with 1:200,000 epineph-
rine and 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine in inferior alveolar nerve blocks. Using a
crossover design, inferior alveolar nerve blocks were randomly administered, in a double-
blind manner, using 0.5% bupivacaine with 1:200,000 epinephrine and 2% lidocaine with
1:100,000 epinephrine, at two separate appointments, to 39 subjects. A pulp tester was
used to test for anesthesia until two consecutive readings of less than 80 were recorded on
at least three of the five experimental teeth. Anesthesia was considered successful when
two consecutive 80 readings were obtained within 15 min and the 80 reading was continu-
ously sustained for 60 min. Anesthetic success was significantly improved for all teeth ex-
cept the first molar with the lidocaine solution. Pulpal anesthesia averaged 4 hr for bupiva-
caine versus 2 hr and 24 min for lidocaine. for lidocaine. (J Endod July 2005:31(7):499-

Abstract: This study compared preoperative administration of acetaminophen or a combi-
nation of acetaminophen and ibuprofen versus placebo for potential increased effective-
ness of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) block anesthesia. There were 40 patients with irreversi-
ble pulpitis randomly assigned to a drug or placebo group. Thirty minutes after ingestion of
medication, an IAN block was administered. A cold test was done 15 minutes after the
block, and if the patients had no sensitivity, endodontic therapy was initiated. If the patient
had no pain on access, the IAN was recorded as successful. If the patient had sensitivity to
cold or to the access procedure, it was recorded as a failure. Overall success was 60% for
all three groups. Success was 71.4% for the acetaminophen group, 75.9% for the aceta-
minophen and ibuprofen group, and 46.2% for the placebo group. There was no significant
difference between the groups; however, there was a trend toward higher success in the
medication groups. (J Endod 2007;33:11–14)

Abstract: A randomized, controlled trial of 31 healthy volunteers compared 4% articaine
with 1:100,000 epinephrine buccal infiltration to buccal plus lingual infiltration of the same
dose of drug in achieving pulpal anesthesia of mandibular first molar teeth. Data were com-
pared with efficacy of an inferior alveolar nerve block using 2% lidocaine 1:80,000 epineph-
rine in a cohort of 27 of the volunteers. Anesthesia was determined using electronic pulp
testing. Buccal and buccal plus lingual infiltrations of articaine with epinephrine did not dif-
fer in efficacy in obtaining pulpal anesthesia for mandibular permanent first molars
(p=0.17). Efficacy of 4% articaine with epinephrine infiltrations for first molar pulp anesthe-
sia was similar to that of an IANB using lidocaine with epinephrine over a 30-minute study
period (96 and 80 episodes of no response to maximal stimulation respectively, p=0.097).
Subjective tooth numbness was more common after IANB than buccal infiltration (p=0.005).
The discomfort of buccal infiltration with articaine was volume dependent (p=0.017) and
similar to that of an IANB. (J Endod 2008;34:514 –518)

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the anesthetic effectiveness of the supplemental intraligamentary injec-
tion, administered with a computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery system, in mandibular posterior teeth diagnosed with
irreversible pulpitis when the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block failed. Fiftyfour emergency patients, diagnosed with
irreversible pulpitis of a mandibular posterior tooth, received an inferior alveolar nerve block and had moderate to severe pain
upon endodontic access. A computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery system was then used to administer intraligamentary
injections of 1.4 ml of 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine. Success of the intraligamentary injection was defined as
none or mild pain upon endodontic access or initial instrumentation. The results demonstrated that anesthetic success was
obtained in 56% (30 of 54) of the patients. We concluded that when the inferior alveolar nerve block failed to provide profound
pulpal anesthesia in mandibular posterior teeth of patients presenting with irreversible pulpitis, the intraligamentary injection

Abstract: We compared the anesthetic efficacy of inferior alveolar nerve blocks (IANBs) with that of buccal infiltrations (BIs) in
mandibular first molars. Using a crossover design, all subjects received a standard IANB or a BI of 1.7 ml. of 4% articaine with
1:100,000 adrenaline (Septanest, Septodont, Saint-Maru-des-Fosses, France) on two appointments separated by at least 1
week. Pulpal anesthesia was determined by using an electric pulp tester. Electric pulp testing was repeated at 5, 8, 11, 15,
20, 25, and 30 minutes after injections. Anesthesia was considered successful if the subject did not respond to the maximum
output of the pulp tester at two or more consecutive time points. Fifty-four percent of the BI and 43% of the IANB were suc-
cessful; the difference was not significant (P=0.34). The onset of pulpal anesthesia was significantly fastger with BI (p=0.03).
In conclusion, BI with 4%$ articaine for mandibular first molars can be a useful alternative for clinicians because compared
with IANB, it has faster onset and a similar success rate. (J Endod 2008:34:11-13)

Abstract: A randomized, double-blind trial was conducted to compare the efficacy of 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epineph-
rine and 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine when used as a supplemental anesthetic. Forty-eight patients with irreversi-
ble pulpitis requiring supplemental buccal infiltration for endodontic therapy were given either 4% articaine with 1:100,000
epinephrineor 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine in a double-blind manner. A standard VAS pain scale was used to
evaluate the patient’s response to pain after a supplemental injection. The mean VAS score after supplemental anesthesia
was 15.28 for 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine and 19.70 for 2% lidocaine with1:100,000 epinephrine. The mean
percentage change in VAS score was 70.5 and 62.2% for articaine and lidocaine, respectively. There was no statistically signifi-
cant difference in the VAS pain score between 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine and 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epi-
nephrine as a supplemental anesthetic. (J Endod 2007;33:403– 405)
