Sensory disturbances in the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) prior to treatment can be attributed various factors, including site, type of fracture, and fracture displacement. Therefore, it is interest assess incidence injuries associated with mandibular fractures before after surgical treatment. Group A consisted patients paresthesia treatment, while B significant difference was observed between ...

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and complication rates of two different techniques for inferior alveolar nerve blocks (IANB). STUDY DESIGN A randomized, triple-blind clinical trial comprising 109 patients who required lower third molar removal was performed. In the control group, all patients received an IANB using the conventional Halsted technique, whereas in the experimental group, a mod...

Although a few cases of facial palsy following mandibular nerve block and dental surgery have been described, it would appear that herpes zoster oticus following dental surgery has not been documented. It is possible that the latent virus may be activated by the mandibular nerve block and dental surgical interventions. Two cases of herpes zoster oticus, both following inferior alveolar nerve bl...

OBJECTIVES Evaluate the frequency of positive aspirations and complications resulting from anesthesia of the inferior alveolar nerve by the direct technique. STUDY DESIGN The sample was composed of 138 anesthetic injections applied with Duflex syringes with reflux. The anesthesia was applied in patients of both sexes of various ages for procedures in which such anesthesia would be necessary. ...

This paper proposes a feature selection based classification method that can be applied to better accuracy in the Digital Radiographs (DR) for the identification of Inferior Alveolar Nerve Injury (IANI). Different conventional features based on the shape and EZW (Embedded Zero tree Wavelet) based texture features are extracted using different feature extraction techniques. Then, aggregate votin...

Objectives: This study was carried out to study the efficacy and the anesthetic characters of using Articaine 4 % with 1:100,000 Epinephrine as a local anesthetic drug in surgical practice through inferior alveolar nerve block and comparing it with Lidocaine 2% with 1:100,000 Epinephrine. Materials and methods: Thirty patients in two groups, fifteen patients each, undergo extraction of impacted...

Third molar surgery is the most common procedure performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons worldwide. This article addresses the incidence of specific complications and, where possible, offers a preventive or management strategy. Complications, such as pain, dry socket, swelling, paresthesia of the lingual or inferior alveolar nerve, bleeding, and infection are most common. Factors thought t...

Comparative measurements were made of 144 orthopantomographs in 50 patients with successful and 94 patients with unsuccessful inferior alveolar nerve block anesthesia. The results show that the bony lingula is prominent in 28.5% of all patients, or in 56.0% of those with unsuccessful anesthesia. The variables mandibular notch vs. mandibular foramen (MN-MF) and the anterior ramus ridge vs. mandi...

Mandibular third molars are the most common impacted teeth. Mandibular first and second molars do not share the same frequency of occurrence. In rare cases the occlusal surfaces of impacted molars are united by the same follicular space and the roots pointing in opposite direction; these are called kissing molars. In some cases, a supernumerary fourth molar can be seen as unerupted and, in this...
