Summary

Pain control in dentistry is an important factor for reducing the fear and anxiety associated with dental procedures. For tooth extraction, it is mandatory to use resources to manage pain and discomfort such as adequate anesthetic techniques . Patient's systemic health conditions and type of local anesthetic drug used, in addition to duration and extension of the extraction procedure are factors which can influence the management of pain in tooth extractions .

Tooth extractions can cause morbidity and changes in hemodynamic parameters to the patient; therefore, it is paramount to carefully select a local anesthetic drug to minimize adverse events . There are a variety of local anesthetics drugs which can meet the specific requirements of different clinical procedures, among them 4% articaine chloridrate with epinephrine at a ratio of 1:100,000. and with and 3% mepivacaine chloridrate without epinephrine, which are largely used in the dental practice and whose clinical safety has already been tested and proved elsewhere

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

4% Articaine HCL With 1:100,000 Epinephrine

Preoperative clinically and radiographic examination will be performed for each patient. Local maxillary infiltration anesthesia adjacent to the tooth with extraction will be the anesthetic method used throughout by a vestibular (1.5 ml) and a palatal injection (0.3 ml). The following agents will be applied for anesthetization: Septanest 4% Articaine HCL With 1:100,000 Epinephrine. The injections and the extractions will be performed by certified dentists of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Tanta University. Dental extraction will be performed after full anesthesia, tested with a probe on the buccal mucosa, palatal mucosa, and the tooth itself each minute after injection, and after subjective symptoms of numbness by the patient.

DRUG

3% plain mepivacaine HCL

Preoperative clinically and radiographic examination will be performed for each patient. Local maxillary infiltration anesthesia adjacent to the tooth with extraction will be the anesthetic method used throughout by a vestibular (1.5 ml) and a palatal injection (0.3 ml). The following agents will be applied for anesthetization: Scandonest 3% plain mepivacaine HCL (Septodont, Manufactured By Novocol Pharmaceuticals of Canada). The injections and the extractions will be performed by certified dentists of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Tanta University. Dental extraction will be performed after full anesthesia, tested with a probe on the buccal mucosa, palatal mucosa, and the tooth itself each minute after injection, and after subjective symptoms of numbness by the patient.
