Summary

Checking the effectiveness of the infiltration technique of local anesthetic agent as an alternative to inferior dental nerve block during tooth extraction

Detailed description

Patients who need their Mandibular first Molar to be removed under local anaesthesia. The first group will receive 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine as lingual and buccal infiltration. In comparison, the second group will receive a conventional inferior alveolar nerve block technique with 2% lidocaine with epinephrine (1:80,000). Pain will be measured para-operatively using a verbal rating scale.

Conditions

• Tooth Extraction

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Infiltration with Articain 4%	The experimental group of patients that are diagnosed for tooth extraction of mandibular 1st. molar will undergo extraction using an infiltration technique for local anaesthesia. In contrast to the conventional group that will receive Inferior alveolar nerve block
PROCEDURE	Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block	This group will receive a conventional inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) technique with 2% lidocaine with epinephrine (1:80,000) for tooth extraction.
