9780867155136: Successful Local Anesthesia For Restorative Dentistry and Endodontics

Synopsis

Fear of pain is the number one reason people give for not making regular visits to the dentist. At the same time, a majority of dentists report experiencing anesthesia-related problems during restorative and endodontic dental procedures. If dentists are able to deliver painless treatment, patient compliance and satisfaction are likely to improve. Administration of local anesthesia is the first step of every dental procedure, and it affects the success of the entire appointment. If the patient is not adequately anesthetized, difficulties will arise. This book will help you successfully anesthetize your patients using the newest technology and drugs available. It presents the rationale, advantages, and limitations of the various anesthetic agents and routes of administration. Special emphasis is placed on supplemental anesthetic techniques that are essential to the practice of dentistry. This second edition brings the literature up to date and includes an expanded chapter on pulpal anesthesia.

Review

This is a superb reference for the target audience students and practitioners of restorative dentistry and endodontics. . . . However, with the increasing popularity of temporary anchorage devices (TADs), local anesthesia is a topic rapidly becoming more pertinent to orthodontists. Here is the ideal reference for anyone wishing to cause their patients the least amount of discomfort whilst inserting TADs. Efficient pain-control is a powerful method of improving patient compliance and satisfaction. A worthy goal indeed. --Sax Dearing, - Australian Orthodontic Journal, May 2012
