Filter by:This study introduces and evaluates a new technique for inferior alveolar nerve blocking.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of two different audiovisual distraction techniques (Audio Video eyeglasses "VR BOX"/ Tablet) in the management of anxious pediatric patients during inferior alveolar nerve block Group A (Control group): IAN will be administrated with basic behavior guidance techniques and without using any type of distraction aids. Group B: IAN will be administrated with using AV eyeglasses "VR BOX" and wireless headphone. Group C: IAN will be administrated with using tablet device and wireless headphone All of the children who experienced an inferior alveolar block with/without distraction will be assessed by using a combination of measures: Wong-Baker FACES (self-report), pulse rate (physiological) and behavior (using FLACC behavior rating scale "external evaluator
Dental anesthesia is routinely performed based on anatomical landmarks which can be variable leading to repeated injections and failure. Ultrasonography can be used to guide these injections by identifying the nerves, accompanying blood vessels and the bony landmarks. 20 healthy adult patients will be selected to receive ultrasound guided greater palatine nerve block (gpn) (10 patients) or inferior alveolar nerve (ian) block (10 patients) depending on the dental procedure they are undergoing. The study will evaluate the feasibility and success rates of the ultrasound guided gpn and ian nerve block.
