Abstract
Anaesthesia of the Long Buccal Nerve
Highlights
The onset of anaesthesia was faster in the second group as 64.70% of the patients were anaestized in 0-30 seconds in comparison to 19.10% and 16.20% in the first and third groups respectively
Block anaesthesia of the long buccal nerve still shows some failure with various techniques at the buccal mucosa, gingival, and cortical bone of the mandibular posterior teeth when compared with infiltration anesthesia [2,3,4]
According to this research it was found that local anaesthetic injection for anaesthesia of the long buccal nerve to extract lower posterior teeth is best given in the buccal vestibule in between the roots of the tooth to be extracted.This may be referred to anatomical factors
Summary
Block anaesthesia of the long buccal nerve still shows some failure with various techniques at the buccal mucosa, gingival, and cortical bone of the mandibular posterior teeth when compared with infiltration anesthesia [2,3,4]. Looking for factors responsible for failure and slow onset of anesthesia of the long buccal nerve in the mandibular posterior teeth that makes the infiltration technique superior to the block technique; It might be found that some logical explanations are there: A. Painless dental procedure was the main goal behind inventing different methods of local anaesthesia. The block techniques of local anaesthesia have shown some difficulties in application and prolong time to produce an effect.
