Clinical Trial Summary

This study introduces and evaluates a new technique for inferior alveolar nerve blocking.

Description:

The study addresses a novel technique to anaesthetize the inferior alveolar nerve depending on extraoral landmarks. Volunteers will receive bilateral blocks and evaluation of the success rate and positive aspiration rate will be performed.
