background and aim: the inferior alveolar canal must be constantly examined as an important anatomical landmark in the study of lower jaw, particularly posterior body and mandibular ramus sites, in dental and surgical procedures. in the present study, the effect of two pathological lesions, ameloblastomas and keratocystic odontogenic tumour, on canal displacement were investigated. materials an...

Almost all minor oral surgical procedures can be performed effectively if patient is relaxed and comfortable. One of the contributing factor for comfort effective pain control. This achieved pre per-operatively by various local anaesthetic techniques. Infiltration techniques are commonly employed in maxillary mandibular teeth whereas posterior requires a nerve block. In certain cases, these fai...

objectives: accurate localization of the inferior alveolar canal (iac) is extremely important in some dental treatments. anatomical variation of the canal means that it can be difficult to locate. the purpose of this study was to assess the relationship of the gonial angle (ga) size and iac position using cone beam computed tomography (cbct). materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 61 dr...

The aim of the present case report was to demonstrate vertical gain in posterior resorbed mandible utilizing use an Allograft Customized Bone Block. presents a 66-year-old healthy female nonsmoker who lost her right mandibular molars long time ago. In past, she had implant placement, which failed due fracture implant. Due high risk nerve damage, left jaw and completely covered with bone. Since ...

Introduction Pain control is one of the most important aspects of behavior management in children. The most common way to achieve pain control is by using local anesthetics (LA). Many studies describe that the buccal nerve innervates the buccal gingiva and mucosa of the mandible for a variable extent from the vicinity of the lower third molar to the lower canine. Regarding the importance of app...

Background and aims. Postoperative pain control is extremely important for both patients and surgeons; in this context, long-acting local anesthesia can play an important role after open reduction of maxillofacial fractures. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of bilateral mental nerve block with bupivacaine on postoperative pain control in mandibular symphyseal fractures. Mate...

Introduction Understanding the anatomy of pterygomandibular fossa is crucial for dentists since it is one of the target spaces for inferior alveolar nerve blocks prior to dental treatment. Failure of achieving adequate anesthesia was reported in 20% of inferior alveolar blocks [1]. The sphenomandibular ligament and the interpterygoid fascia are integral structures that define this area [2]. The...

Background: The mandibular notch allows passage of masseteric vessels and nerve to the deep aspect muscle. existing data gives a fairer idea in locating but does not consider much various shapes sizes into account. Hence present study analyses size depths achieve more accurate method for block. Thus, this investigation intends examine morphology morphometry mandibles South Indian people. Method...

BACKGROUND Effective pain control in Dentistry may be achieved by local anesthetic techniques. The success of the anesthetic technique in mandibular structures depends on the proximity of the needle tip to the mandibular foramen at the moment of anesthetic injection into the pterygomandibular region. Two techniques are available to reach the inferior alveolar nerve where it enters the mandibula...
