Background: It is important to control the pain associated with root canal treatment (RCT) in endodontic. Pain accompanying fear and anxiety due to endodontic treatment can be reduced by anesthetic techniques. The present study aims to compare the effect of articaine versus lidocaine local anesthesia for inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) and long buccal nerve block on pain during RCT. METHODS: Twenty patients diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis of mandibular posterior tooth were selected. The patients randomly received either cartridge of lidocaine or articaine using IANB and long buccal nerve block. The patients were randomly divided into two groups of ten. Group 1: patients received IANB and long buccal nerve block 2% lidocaine with 1:100000 epinephrine. Group 2: patients received IANB and long buccal nerve block with 4% articaine with 1:100000 epinephrine. Before the Injection, the patient received all information about the visual analysis scale (VAS). Pain was evaluated using VAS scale in numberic value 1 to 10 number. The pain was evaluated at three different stages: before administration of LA, after immediate access opening, and after immediate obturation procedure. Data were analyzed using various suitable statistical tests. RESULT: The mean value of efcacy of pain before administration of local anesthesia (LA) was 8.50 ± 0.97 for lidocaine and 8.30 ± 0.48 for articaine had no signicant difference. A signicant difference was observed at two different duration after immediate access opening and after immediate obturation where articaine has a lower mean value 3.60 ± 1.08 and 1.60 ± 0.17 respectively (P>0.05) as compared to the mean value of lidocaine 4.10 ± 1.10 and 1.60 ± 0.17 respectively Conclusion: Within the limitations of the study, in cases of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis articaine 4% did not alleviate pain much and showed better anesthetic efcacy than 2% lidocaine with IANB and long buccal nerve block.

Mandibular Posterior Teeth

BACKGROUND: Profound pulpal anaesthesia using the inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) technique for extraction of mandibular posterior teeth is difcult to achieve. Several authors emphasised the effects of intraligamentary injection anaesthesia (ILA), also known as periodontal injection; as a primary or supplementary technique. The aim of this study was to compare the efcacy of ILA over IANB technique in providing adequate and superior anaesthesia for extraction of mandibular premolars and molars. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 30 patients requiring bilateral extractions of mandibular posterior teeth were selected. The parameters evaluated were subjective (numbness) and objective (pain on gingival probing) signs of anaesthesia, difference in pain perception during the procedure; and duration of anaesthesia for ILA (Group A) and IANB technique (Group B). RESULTS: The results showed that no difference was found in terms of subjective and objective evaluation of anaesthesia between the groups. A statistically signicant difference was seen in Group A, where intraligamentary injection anaesthesia showed less pain perception than the IANB technique. However, longer duration of anaesthesia was noted in Group B. CONCLUSION: With fewer failures and complications, the intraligamentary injection can be effectively used as a primary technique to alleviate pain and profoundly anaesthetize the mandibular posterior teeth during dento-alveolar extraction procedure.
