Description:
Over the past century, local anaesthetics and their delivery systems have evolved and improved significantly. Despite these advances however, our ability to obtain profound anaesthesia 100% of the time is elusive, especially in the mandible. These situations can cause painful dental visits for our patients creating anxiety for them and for the operator as well.
Learning Objectives:
During this CE webinar, the student will explore:
• the reasons and solutions for incomplete local anaesthesia
• a discussion about the relevant anatomy and pharmacology that leads to incomplete local anaesthesia will be presented
• techniques beyond the standard inferior alveolar nerve block and armamentarium besides the standard needle and syringe will also be evaluated
Some of the topics to be reviewed include the Gow-Gates Block; articaine; intraosseous and PDL injections.
Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
