Abstract
The maxillary teeth are supplied by the anterior, middle and posterior superior alveolar nerves. The anterior and middle superior alveolar (AMSA) nerves exit the skull from the infra-orbital foramen, where they can be blocked for procedures on the maxillary anteriors and premolars. Sometimes, the middle superior alveolar nerve has a variant course and is not blocked by the conventional block technique. A new technique has been described for blocking the AMSA nerves, keeping in view the alternate pathway of the middle superior alveolar nerve.
