SUMMARY:CE – Local Anesthesia: Is the “Mandibular Block” Passé?
DESCRIPTION:Local Anesthesia: Is the “Mandibular Block” Passé? (In-person course)\n4 CEU\, Core • Member Price: $159 early / $179 regular\nLocal anesthesia forms the backbone of pain control techniques in contemporary dental practice. The subject of pain control in dentistry has undergone a recent renewal of interest\, a renaissance. In this course\, Dr. Malamed will present an in-depth discussion of the problem in achieving MANDIBULAR ANESTHESIA.  \nThe traditional ‘mandibular nerve block’ has one of the lowest success rates of major nerve blocks administered in the human body. Newer techniques\, such as the Gow-Gates mandibular nerve block; Akinosi-Vazirani closed mouth mandibular nerve block; intraosseous anesthesia; periodontal ligament injection (PDL) and intraseptal techniques have been developed in an effort to improve success in this area. The local anesthetic articaine HCl has been demonstrated to have significant success when administered by mandibular infiltration in adults\, while more recently the ability to buffer local anesthetic solutions has demonstrated potential to both increase the rate of onset of anesthesia as well as increasing its depth. These techniques will be reviewed in this program. \n \nSponsored by:\n \n \n \nStanley F.
