What does a PSA nerve block?

A

-Pulpal maxillary 3rd, 2nd and 1st molars

19
Q

What occurs if you go to deep with a PSA injection?

A

-Blanching of the cheek (damage of the pterygoid plexus and maxillary artery)

20
Q

A

-True

24
Q

25
Q

What is an Infraorbital nerve block for?

A

  • Cainine
  • Incisors
26
Q

What do you use the greater palatine block for?

A

-Restorative procedures involving more than two maxillary posterior teeth or palatal tissues distal to the canine

27
Q

T/F The greater palatine block provides pulpal anesthesia

A

False

-It does not

28
Q

What is the nasopalatine block useful for?
