Abstract

The efficiency of infiltration, conduction, and intraligamental anesthesia with different drugs for dental interventions was evaluated in 331 patients without concomitant somatic diseases. The efficiency of local anesthesia depends primarily on the drug; other essential factors are the route of this drug administration and type of intervention in the oral cavity. The most effective of the studied anesthetics was 4% artisane with epinephrine 1:100,000; 3% prolocaine with epinephrine 1:100,000 ranked second. These anesthetics maximally realized their effects at intraligamental injection during the treatment of caries and periodontitis.
