ABSTRACT The local anesthetic drugs presently available and used in dentistry represent the safest and most effective drugs in all of medicine for the prevention and management of pain. One drawback associated with intraoral local anesthesia is patients’ fear of injections .and the perception that these are painful. Recent advances have resulted in the use of computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery vehicles to regulate the delivery and rate of flow of local anesthetics at the injection site, lessening potential discomfort associated with injections. New injection techniques that provide reliable anesthesia, depending on the technique and area of anesthesia necessary have been discussed.

Anesthetic Drugs

The article presents the results of a sociological study to identify the variability and frequency of complications caused by the use of local anesthetic drugs in pregnant women at the stomatological appointment. The study was conducted using a Google Forms application based on dental education sites on social media. 155 dentists of various specialties took part in the survey. According to the data obtained, among the doctors participating in the study, 70.3% faced complications of local anesthesia in pregnant women. The most common complications are from the nervous (n=54) and cardiovascular (n=19) systems. Some of them can be attributed to the manifestations of the psychogenic reaction of patients to the introduction of local anesthetic drugs, and not to the immediate undesirable effects of anesthetics. Taking into account the results obtained and the data of literature sources, recommendations are given to prevent the development of complications in pregnant patients from the introduction of local anesthetics. Recommendations can be useful for dentists and dental students.

The article is based on the analysis of the literature and the latest international guidelines of dental associations in order to systematize the knowledge of doctors. The paper discusses local anesthetic agents such as lignocaine, benzocaine, articaine or mepivacaine, many times used in daily practice by dentists. Various anesthetic techniques, including computer-controlled systems for administering anesthesia, are described in the publication. The topic of teething preparations containing anesthetics and the risks associated with their use were also discussed, so that dentists could warn against their use of carers and parents of children and thus reduce the number of complications after their use. Contraindications to the use of analgesia have been presented and the complications that may occur after their administration have been characterized, thanks to which the right choice of the appropriate agent for analgesia will reduce the risk of possible complications after local anesthesia. The authors hope that after reading the article, doctors will be confident in using the benefits of local anesthetics.

Clinicians should identify the risks associated with the use of anesthetics and understand the maximum recommended doses of local anesthetics. Errors in calculating the dose of local anesthetics are common due to the widespread use of these agents. Different methods of calculating the dose of the drug have different advantages and disadvantages, and no method can guarantee a calculation without errors. Nomogram is a simple graphical tool on which one can read the result of arithmetic operations with given numbers. The nomogram for calculating the maximum dose of local anesthetic enables quick cross-checking of the calculation, based on the patient's age or body weight. They are of special importance in the application of local anesthesia in children.

ABSTRACT Introduction Anterior middle superior alveolar (AMSA) block is a nerve block technique in conjunction with computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery (CCLAD) system. Anterior middle superior alveolar produces local anesthesia (LA) to the maxillary teeth from second premolar to the central incisor including the hard palate and corresponding soft-tissue of both buccal and palatal side, with single palatal injection. Aim To evaluate efficacy of AMSA block for extraction of maxillary first premolar. Study design In randomized single blind, split mouth clinical trial, the 14 patients received the conventional buccal-palatal (B-P) anesthesia on one side and CCLAD anesthesia AMSA for other side. The treatment consisted of bilateral extraction of maxillary first premolars for orthodontics. Pain perception ratings were obtained by using 10 point visual analog scale (VAS). Results A total of 100% cases had painless injection with CCLAD, whereas 28.57% patients had painless injection experience with conventional LA. In all cases, there was no pain during extraction on both sides. With CCLAD, buccal retraction was painful in four cases whereas palatal retraction was painful in one case. Conclusion Anterior middle superior alveolar block injected with CCLAD is better as LA technique for extraction of maxillary first premolar as compared to B-P approach.

Abstract Aim The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of cooling the soft tissue of injection sites on the pain perceptions of pediatric patients during the administration of local anesthesia for routine dental procedures. Methods and Materials A total of 160 children aged 5-6 years were included in the present study. On a random basis, the subjects were allocated to the without ice pretreatment (WIP) group (topical anesthesia + counterstimulation + distraction) or the ice pretreatment (IP) group (cooling + topical anesthesia + counterstimulation + distraction). During the administration of an inferior alveolar nerve block, the children's behavior was assessed using the sound, eye, and motor (SEM) scale. The statistical analysis of data was performed based on the analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results There were no significant differences within the groups between the values of the sound, eye, and motor components for either the WIP or the IP groups (P>0.05). All three components of the SEM in the IP group were consistently lower than the WIP group (P<0.05). Moreover, the SEM value for the WIP group surpassed the IP group (P<0.05). Conclusions Cooling the site of infiltration block prior to the injection of local anesthesia significantly reduced the pain perceived during injection of local anesthetic agent in pediatric patients. Clinical Significance Pre-cooling of the soft tissues of an injection site prior to the administration of a local anesthetic can minimize the discomfort and anxiety associated with the injection procedure and facilitates the management of pediatric patients during this phase of a dental procedure.

Background. Local anesthesia is given to decrease pain perception during dental treatments, but it may itself be a reason for pain and aggravate the dental fear. Computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery system (CCLADS) is one of the alternatives for decreasing the patients’ pain during local anesthesia. This study compared the time required for the recovery from anesthesia, pain/discomfort during injection and pain/discomfort 24 hours after administering local anesthesia with CCLADS, a standard self-aspirating syringe and a conventional disposable 2-mL syringe. Methods. The study was conducted on 90 subjects (an age group of 20-40 years), who suffered from sensitivity during cavity preparation. They were randomly divided into three groups of 30 individuals each to receive intraligamentary anesthesia (2% lignocaine with 1:80,000 adrenaline) using either of the three techniques: CCLADS, a standard self-aspirating syringe, or a conventional disposable 2-mL syringe. The onset of anesthesia, time required for recovery from anesthesia (in minutes), pain/discomfort during injection and pain/discomfort 24 hours after administering local anesthesia were recorded. Results. The time required for the onset of anesthesia and recovery from anesthesia was shorter with CCLADS (4.83±2.31 and 34.2±1.895, respectively) as compared to the standard self-aspirating group (10.83±1.90 and 43.5±7.581, respectively) and the conventional group (11.00±2.03 and 43.5±6.453, respectively) (P<0.001). The patients in the CCLADS group experienced no pain during local anesthesia administration as compared to the patients in the self-aspirating and conventional groups. The CCLADS and self-aspirating groups showed lower pain response as compared to the conventional group for pain after 24 hours. Conclusion. CCLADS can be an effective and pain-free alternative to conventional local anesthetic procedures.
