Reasons For Failure
1. Hot teeth and inflammation
2. Needle too short
3. Needle deflection
4. Inadequate volume
5. Anatomy (skeletal & neuro)
6. Molecular degradation
7. Patient cooperation
8. pKa and pH

1. IANB Failure Rates
• ~20%
• In endo, with irreversible pulpitis, ~55%
Claffey et al J of Endo Aug, 2004
![Page 4: Advanced Local Anaesthesia - tcbsc.net · Advanced Local Anaesthesia “Tried & True and What’s New” Toronto Crown & Bridge Study Club Feb 7, 2014 David Isen BSc, DDS d.isen@rogers.com](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071215/6044e95464312a42a452867f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Blocks and Inflammation
• Mediators of inflammation (eg histamine,
kinins, prostaglandins…) neuronal
excitability.
• ↑ prostaglandins in inflamed pulps.
• Inflammatory substances can move up nerve
tract.
• Acidic nature of infection/inflammation
• LA less effective
![Page 5: Advanced Local Anaesthesia - tcbsc.net · Advanced Local Anaesthesia “Tried & True and What’s New” Toronto Crown & Bridge Study Club Feb 7, 2014 David Isen BSc, DDS d.isen@rogers.com](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071215/6044e95464312a42a452867f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Hot Teeth
• Patients in pain:
– Are more apprehensive
– Have lower pain thresholds
This ↓ the effectiveness of LA
Take a PA radiograph

Study: Premed With NSAID
• 150 patients with irreversible pulpitis
mandibular molars
• Divided into 3 groups of 50
1: 75 mg indomethacin

and…
• In the US, ~30 needles break / yr.
• ~99% of needles that break are 30 ga.
• Break occurs at hub
Requires surgery for recovery

Onpharma Buffering System
Onset
• Theory is to add basic solution to LA
cartirdge
• Three components:
– Sodium bicarbonate (3 ml cartridges)
– Mixing pen
– Cartridge connecter
Equal amount of LA replaced by bicarbonate

Buffering Rationale
• LA’s with vasoconstrictor are acidic
• This can cause:
– More pain on injection
– ↑ tissue damage
– ↑ post-op pain
– Slower onset
– Less efficacy in areas of infection
– ↑ pH from 3.5 to 7 will ↑ lipophilic molecule concentration by 6000X

Pressure and tissue distention?
• Infiltration mandibular cuspid area
• Wand: slow (160 s/ml) vs. fast (30 s/ml) speed
Significant pain & anxiety with fast speed

Location of Mylohyoid Nerve
• On average, mylohyoid nerve leaves the
IAN 14.7 mm above the mandibular
foramen
• This is superior to the location of IANB
• The Gow-Gates block may be advantageous

6. Molecular Degredation
• Do not repeatedly warm or autoclave cartridges
• Avoid light exposure (esp lidocaine)
• Do not stockpile
• Store between 59 – 86 º F
• Look for air or wax flakes
• Do not violate vacuum until needed (esp levo)

Factors Influencing Tissue pH:
• Infection
–Infected tissue pH ~5
• The local anaesthetic itself
Remember: ↑ pH from 3.5 to 7 will ↑ concentration
of lipophilic molecules by 6000X

Methemoglobinemia
• doses of prilocaine, articaine, benzocaine or inborn errors of metabolism
• Can occur following extreme exercise
• Methemoglobin cannot carry O2

– to > 20%
• Blood rust-brown, respiratory distress, cyanosis, lethargy, dizziness - occurs a few hours after Tx
• Hospital and methylene blue? (O2 not helpful)

practitioners may wish to consider
scientific literature before using a 4%
solution for mandibular blocks”

“Paresthesia following LA in nonsurgical cases
is so rare that dentists are not legally
required to warn patients of the possibility of
temporary or permanent paresthesia as part
of informed consent.”
DeFerrari v. Neville, Ontario Court of Justice – General
Division – No. G14777 / 05

Summary:
• LAs are neurotoxic
• Neurotoxicity is related to concentration
• Thicker nerves may be more resistant
The Dilemma:
• More LA molecules may = ↑ effectiveness
• Can’t study concentration, efficacy &
paresthesia
• Even if not statistically significant, ↑ efficacy
may be noticed clinically (eg 1 less failure/week)

LA in Pregnancy
• Safe in pregnant or nursing patient
• Avoid 1st trimester if possible
• Allows avoidance of prolonged antibiotic or analgesic use
• Lidocaine and prilocaine highest FDA ranking (Category B)
• Prilocaine most effective at crossing placenta
• Defer to lidocaine since 2%

LA and Nursing
• LA is secreted in breast milk
• It is safe for infant
• Stays in breast milk for ~ 6X the half life:
• Lidocaine ½ life ~90 min. In milk for 9 hrs.
• Articaine ½ life ~27 min. In milk for 2 ½ hrs.

Clinical Factors in LA Toxicity
• Speed of injection
• Inadvertent IV injection
• Intraosseous injection
• Too large a dose
• No vasocontrictor
• Complacency

Toxicity & the Elderly
• May have reduced liver function
– Reduced liver function of 50% by age 65
– Therefore reduce total dose
• May have compromised cardiac function
– Therefore reduce or eliminate vasoconstrictor

Example: Pedo Consideration
• 15 kg child (~ 30 lbs)
• Pediatric dose for articaine 7 mg/kg
• 7 mg/kg x 15 kg = 105 mg toxic dose
• 68 mg of drug per cartridge (1.7 ml x 4%)
• Toxic dose = 1.54 cartridges

Functions of the Vasoconstrictor
• Delays absorption of LA
– toxicity
– duration
• (no advantage for block > 1:200,000)
• Surgical hemostasis
• ( concentration is advantageous)

↓ Toxicity of LA
