Especially in the treatment of children the intraligamentary anesthesia as primary method of local pain elimination has proven to be beneficial. The anesthetising effect after intraligamental injection virtually begins without latency and is not associated with an extensive numbness, which children often find hard to tolerate(1). Combined with a short and confined duration of action of about 30...

The intraligamentary or periodontal ligament (PDL) injection technique uses a standard dental syringe 1,2 and many clinicians have described several difficulties related to it. These include positioning the needle within the desired location, controlling the placement of the needle throughout the administration phase of anesthesia, increased pain perception reported by dental patients due to hi...

BACKGROUND The available literature confirms the effectiveness of intraligamentary injections equal to nerve blocks and articaine equal to lignocaine with better depth of penetration for single tooth pulpectomy procedures with less postoperative soft tissue trauma. An advancement in the field of local anesthesia delivery is the Single Tooth Anesthesia-Wand (STA-Wand) which is relatively pain-fr...

introduction: the aim of this randomized-controlled clinical trial was to assess the effect of intraligamentary (pdl) injection of dexamethasone on onset and severity of post-treatment pain in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. methods and materials: a total number of 60 volunteers were included according to the inclusion criteria and were assigned to three groups ( n =20). after ...

The traditional classification methods of dental local anesthesia must be modified. In this paper we proved that the vascular mechanism is leading component of spongy injection. It is necessary to take into account the high effectiveness and relative safety of spongy anesthesia, as well as versatility, ease of implementation and the growing prevalence in the world. The essence of the proposed m...
