INTRODUCTION Few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of the Gow-Gates and Vazirani-Akinosi techniques in patients presenting with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Therefore, the purpose of this prospective, randomized study was to evaluate the anesthetic efficacy of the Gow-Gates and Vazirani-Akinosi techniques using 3.6 mL 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine in mandibular posterior ...

Surveys were sent to Harvard School of Dental Medicine students and graduates from the classes of 2000 through 2006 to determine their current primary means of achieving mandibular anesthesia. Orthodontists and orthodontic residents were excluded. All subjects received clinical training in the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block and two alternative techniques (the Akinosi mandibular bloc...

Introduction: Over the years different techniques have been developed for achieving mandibular nerve anaesthesia. The main aim of our study was to carry out comparison and clinical efficacy of mandibular nerve anaesthesia by Direct Conventional technique with that of Vazirani-Akinosi mandibular nerve block technique. Materials and Methods: 50 adult patients requiring surgical extraction of prem...

Objective: Anesthetic techniques like the Akinosi technique were introduced to surmount the problems of the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) technique. This study aimed to compare the local anesthetic efficacy of IANB via the conventional and Akinosi techniques in patients presenting to the Maxillofacial Surgery Department of School of Dentistry, Shahid Beheshti University. Me...

RESUMEN Objetivo: Se presenta un estudio sobre 56 pacientes en los que se realizó extracción de un cordal mandibular, con el objetivo de valorar la eficacia de la técnica de Akinosi como alternativa al bloqueo mandibular directo. Diseño del estudio: Un grupo de 28 pacientes fue anestesiado mediante un bloqueo directo mandibular y otro de 28 casos con la técnica de Akinosi. Los parámetros valora...

Introduction/Objective. The correct choice of local anesthesia should imply choosing the simplest technique, with maximum and minimal discomfort for patient. objectives this research were to determine efficacy modified Vazirani?Akinosi technique (mVAt) in comparison standard one (VAt) compare techniques regarding clinically relevant parameters. Methods. was conducted at Clinic Oral Surgery, Sch...
