different types of anesthetic in asymptomatic teeth

A

No significant difference in asymptomatic teeth between 4% prilocaine, 3% mepivicaine and 2% lidocaine (with 1:100K epi) in onset, success and failure of IAN blocks. Three solutions are equivalent for IAN block of 50 minutes.

Q

Basically, how do local anesthetics work?

A

They block voltage gated sodium channels, partitioning into the uncharged basic form (RN) which crosses cell membranes, and the charged acid form (RNH+) which binds to the inner pore of the sodium channel.

A

It forces anesthetic solutions through the cribiform plate into the marrow spaces around the tooth. It is not via the PDL, and it’s not the result of pressure anesthesia. It should be considered intraosseous.

100
Q

Three parts of a local anesthetic

A
  1. lipophilic aromatic residue, 2. hydrophilic amino group 3. intermediate hydrocarbon chain
101
Q

At rest, which ions are outside of the nerve membrane? Inside?

A

Na and Cl outside. K inside

102
Q

What is the resting potential of nerve membranes? How is it created?

A

-70 to -90 mV. The Na pump maintains the resting potential by pumping Na from inside to outside.

103
Q

What happens to the ions when a stimulus is produced?

A

Na moves in and K moves out, causing a depolarization, producing an action potential that travels down the nerve membrane.

104
Q

how do local anesthetics interfere with the ions involved in depolarization?

A

LAs competitively displace Ca from nerve membranes. Because Ca exerts a regulatory effect on the active transport of Na out, this interferes with conduction.

105
Q

Why is HCl added to anesthetics?

A

LA’s are weakly basic and poorly soluble in water. They are combined with HCl to form hydrochloride salts that are more soluble in water.

106
Q

what is pKa

A

the pH value at which there are equal parts of uncharged ion and charged cation.

107
Q

pKa of lidocaine? mepivacaine?
what is tissue pH
what happens to tissue pH during infection?

A

7.85, 7.6
7.4 (so there are more cations of L.A. in tissue).
pH 5.5–> increases cationic form to 99%

108
Q

Three reasons LA don’t work in infection

A

pH of tissues, dilution by blood or fluids, too rapid absorption into systemic circulation.

109
Q

Order of loss of function to local anesthetics (PTTPS)

A

Pain, temp, touch, proprioception, skeletal muscle tone

110
Q

metabolism of amides?

A

hydrolyzed in liver by microsomal enzymes, excreted by kidney.
