Summary

This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the anesthetic efficacy of 2% lignocaine administered through an inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) in one group of participants with 4% articaine delivered via primary buccal infiltration in other group in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis in mandibular first molars.

Conditions

  • Anesthetic Efficacy

Interventions

OTHER

INTERVENTION 1: 2% Lignocaine 1:80,000 epinephrine

2% Lignocaine Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block (IANB) : Participants in this group will receive an inferior alveolar nerve block using 2% Lignocaine with 1:80,000 epinephrine. The injection will be administered following standard IANB technique for mandibular first molars. The anesthetic efficacy will be assessed with 2 consecutive non responsive readings on EPT objectivelt and via Heft-Parker VAS not more than ≥55 .

OTHER

INTERVENTION 2 : 4%Articaine 1:100,000 epinephrine

Participants in this group will receive a buccal infiltration of 4% Articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine at the site of the mandibular first molar. The injection will follow standard buccal infiltration technique. Anesthetic efficacy will be evaluated during endodontic treatment using the same pain assessment method as Arm 1.
