Abstract

Inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) is the most common nerve block used in dentistry to perform various procedure’s like endodontics and extraction in the mandibular teeth. Paediatric dental patients have an inherent fear of needle phobia which has to be dealt, for successful treatment and behaviour management. IANB block has many disadvantages like being technique sensitive, painful and has high failure rate. In paediatric dental patients infiltration anaesthesia technique is an alternative that should be as effective as IANB block with minimal discomfort but lacks success in elder age groups due to anatomical considerations. The present clinical guideline helps the clinician understand the success of infiltration anesthesia in different age group children so that it can be practiced in day to pediatric dentistry.
