Supplemental Injection Techniques Flashcards
Breakdown of Intaosseous supplemental anesthesia techniques
- PDL injection
- intraseptal injection
- IO anesthesia (intraosseous)
PDL injection AKA - when? (general)
intraligamentary injection
when IAN not adequate
Indications for PDL injection
1, if dont want IAN but need anesthetic for 1 or 2 manidbular teeth in a quarant
- bilateral isolated mandibular teeth (don’t want to give two blocks)
- tx in children
- tx when nerve blockis contraindicated
- use as a possible aid in diagnosis of mandibular paion
contraindictions for PDL injection
- infection or severe inflammation in injection site
- primary teeth, when the permanent tooth bud is present
- patient who requires a “numb” sensation for comfort (not geeting anesthesia of lip, tongue, other soft tissue)
PDL injection advantages
- prevents anesthesia of lip, tongue, other soft tissue
- minimum doses of LA required (.2 ml per root)
- alternative to partially successful regional blcok
- rapid onset
- less traumatic than conventional blocks
- well suite in children
minimum doses of LA required for PDL injection?
.2ml per root
disadvantages of PDL injection
- proper needle placement may be difficult to achieve
- leakage of LA into pt’s mouth produces unpleasant taste
- excess pressure can have adverse effects
technique for PDL injection needle? insert? landmarks? orient bevel?
needle? 27 short needle (not 30)
insert? = long axis of the tooth, on its mesial and distal roots interproximally
landmarks? = roots of tooth and periodontal tissues
orient bevel? = toward root of tooth and advance apically until resistance is met
if one root – make needle safe
multi-rooted? - repeat procedure on other root
administer rate of LA in PDL injection?
.2ml of LA over 20 seconds
patient position in PDL injection?
supine or semi-supine position
indication of success in PDL injection?
significant resistance to deposition of the LA
may be ischemia of soft tissue adjacent to the injection site
intraseptal injection?
useful when?
path of diffusion?
similar to PDL
useful – in prividing osseous and soft tissue anesthesia and hemostasis for perio currettage and flap procedures
path of diffusion = LA is thourgh the medullary bone, as in PDL
areas anesthetized in intraseptal injection?
bone, soft tissue, root
indications for intraseptal injection?
pain control and hemostasis for sfot and osseous tissue perio treatemnt
advantages to intraseptal injection
similar to the PDL one-
- no lip or tongue numbness, minimum volume of LA, decreases bleeing, atraumatic, immeiate onset of action, few post-op complications, useful for periondtially involved teeth
disadvantages to to intraseptal injection
- mutliple tissue punctures
- bitter taste of LA if leakage occurs
- short duration of action of pulpal anesthesia
- requires clinical experience for success
technique for intraseptal injection needle? insert? landmarks? orient bevel?
needle? = 27 g short insert?= center of the interdental papilla adjacent to the tooth being treated
landmarks? = papillary triangle, 2 mm below the tip of papilla, equidistant from adj. teeth (on either side)
orient bevel? = towards the apex
syringe orientation in intraseptal injection?
orient needle 45 degrees to long axis of the tooth, at a right angle to the soft tissue, with the bevel facing the APEX of the tooth
