Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study compares the effectiveness of two techniques of local anesthesia in the extraction of mandibular teeth. One group received inferior alveolar nerve block and the other group received buccal infiltration of 4% Articaine

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Inferior alveolar nerve block is the commonly used local anesthetic injection technique for extraction of mandibular teeth. Buccal infiltration technique alone is considered to be ineffective in treating mandibular teeth due to the thickness of buccal cortical plate. However, buccal infiltration, if provided with an agent with higher penetration capability, may be used instead of Inferior alveolar nerve block. Articaine, due to its thiophene ring, has higher liposolubility and bony diffusion than any other agent.

This study compares the effectiveness of inferior alveolar nerve block and buccal infiltration using 4% Articaine in the extraction of mandibular teeth
