Brief Summary

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

The goal of this clinical trial, is to test out the efficacy of using Articaine only as a local anesthesia as buccal infiltration to extract lower molar teeth.

Study will be performed in patients visiting Riyadh Elm University clinics seeking extraction of lower molars bilaterally, in each visit one molar tooth will be extracted using Ariticaine and the second visit with Lidocaine, pain level will be monitored and documented.

This study may be helpful in providing scientific information to the oral maxillofacial surgeons which will assist them in choosing the best local anesthetic agent, and possibly substituting using inferior alveolar nerve block with infiltration only when extracting the mandibular posterior teeth.

Detailed Description

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

This is a double-blind, randomized clinical trial, which will involve 40 patients visiting the out-patient department of Oral and Maxillofacial surgery. For each patient, one mandibular molar will be extracted from right as well as left side, with one side being anesthetized using 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine and other with 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine buccal infiltration only. Evaluation and comparison will be done on the basis of pain prevalence exhibited by the patients while extraction.

Study Design

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

CROSSOVER

One 1.8 ml cartridge of 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine will be utilized in the articaine group and one 1.8 ml cartridge of 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine will be utilized in the lidocaine group. The cartridges will be of similar size and shape, to be allotted a special code, enclosed in thin, adhesive tape by the distributor, and kept into one box for articaine and another box for lidocaine.

A 27-gauge needle will be used for buccal infiltration in each case. Any sensation of pain after administering the local anesthesia will be considered as a failure and an inferior alveolar nerve block will be given. Otherwise, the tooth will be extracted with no additional anesthesia.
