Mandibular Injection Techniques Flashcards
proper hand position with the syringe?
palm down = poor control
palm up = better control
palm up and finger rest = BEST CONTROL
two soft tissue injections with mandibular anesthesia?
Mental
Buccal
4 mandibular block anesthesia
- IANB
- Incisive
- Gow-gates
- Vazirini - Alkinosis (closed mouth)
metal aesthesia is strictly what?
SOFT TISSUE
#32 extraction with soft tissue flap, removal of bone, and sectioning tooth? Which LA technique to obtain adequate LA?
- IANB with long buccal
- Gow-gates
- Vazirini- akinosi
three techniques you can use to take out a wisdom tooth?
- IANB with long buccal
- Gow-gates
- Vazirini- akinosi
nerves anesthetized in an IANB?
- incisive
- mental
lingual is common
areas anesthetized in an IANB?
Mandibular teeth up to the midline
body of mandible, inferior part of the ramus
buccal mucoperiosteum, mucous membranes ANTERIOR to the mental foraemen (via mental nerve)
anterior 2/3 of the tongue and floor of oral cavity – lingual nerve
indication for giving an IANB
- procedures on multiple mandibular teeth
- when buccal soft tissue anesthesia is required anterior to the mental foramen
- when lingual soft tissue anesthesia is required
if pt. cannot open their mouth what can you not do?
Full IANB technique
- likely due to trismus
contraindications for IANB
- infection or actute inflammation in the area of the injection
- patients who might bite lips or tongue (very young child, handicaped patient)
- limitation to mouth opening *
Landmaks for preforming IANB?
- cornoid notch
- pterygomandibular raphe
- the occlusal plane of mandibular teeth
- contralateral premolars
position where you sit when giving an IANB on right side? left side?
right side = face patient and sit 8 oclock
left side - face same direction (face the patient) but sit at 10 oclock
pt. develops right sided facial paralysis. what happened?
facial nerve gets anesthetized
– needle goes beyond posterior border of the mandible into parotid
facial nerve controls muscles of the eye?
YES – so cant close the eye
opens the eye?
CN III
innervates LPS
CN VII action on eye and what it innervates
Innervates obicularis oris and is repsonsible for opening the eye
what happens if needle goes too deep in IANB?
could go into the parotid bed where cranial nerve 7 is and facial nerve paralysis
bone contact with IANB?
want to make sure we do not go too deep and into parotid bed– so if no contact likely had overinsertion and so you need to RETRACT AND REPOSITION LATERALLY
if you do not get adequate LA with an IANB what is likely the cause?
- too low (MOST COMMON)
- injection too far anterior
- ACCESSORY INNERVATION –
how to correct for accessory innervation in an IANB?
correct by
- lingual infiltrate
- PDL
- Inject lower for a bifid IAN
technique that has highest incidence of aspiration?
IANB (10-15%)
what is not anesthetized with an Incisve nerve block
the lingual soft tissues
