Background: One of the most crucial parts any operation is postoperative monitoring and management. Numerous clinical strategies for administering analgesic drugs have been developed to reduce pain in patients. High opioid doses before, during, after surgery might cause respiratory depression, sleepiness, nausea, vomiting, itching, difficulties urinating, ileus. Most surgeries maxillo-mandibula...

Effects of curettage on the healing pattern extraction wounds and their surrounding structures mandibular canal nerve were observed compared after third molars from dogs, right alveoli having been submitted to a thorough curettage. New bone deposition upper lateral walls was observed, squeezing nerve.

INTRODUCTION The inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) block does not always result in successful pulpal anesthesia. Anesthetic success rates might be affected by increased anxiety. Nitrous oxide has been shown to have both anxiolytic and analgesic properties. Therefore, the purpose of this prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was to determine the effect of nitrous oxide on t...

AIM The aim of this article is to present a case of an accessory mental foramen (AMF). BACKGROUND The mental foramen is an important anatomical structure of particular importance in local anesthesia and surgical procedures in terms of achieving effective mandibular nerve blocks and avoiding injuries to the neurovascular bundles. Although rare, multiple mental foramina have been described in h...

background: successful anesthesia during root canal therapy may be difficult to obtain. intraosseousinjection significantly improves anesthesia’s success as a supplemental pulpal anesthesia, particularly incases of irreversible pulpitis. the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of x‑tip intraosseousinjection and inferior alveolar nerve (ian) block in primary anesthesia for mandibular p...

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...

The posterior superior alveolar (PSA) nerve block is, from an anatomical perspective, challenging because the mandibular ramus and the zygomatic process of the maxilla can interfere with the course of the needle. Dentists empirically know that shifting the patient's mandible to the ipsilateral side can improve visibility and accessibility for such blocks. This cadaveric study aimed to establish...

A 12-year-old French bulldog presented for a mandibulectomy due to large ameloblastoma in the left rostral mandibular body. Preoperative pain management consisted of methadone 0.2 mg/kg and nerve block with ropivacaine 0.5%. Intraoperatively, an indwelling perineural catheter was placed through canal, tip foramen postoperative administration. Ropivacaine 0.2% administered every 6 hours first 36...
