The assessments of patient response to thermal (pulp vitality test) and pressure (compression of soft tissue) stimuli were carried out before and 5 minutes after the inferior alveolar nerve block procedure, using both visual analog scale (VAS) and Mc Gill pain questionnaires (McG). The mean percentage of patient response decreased after alveolar nerve block, according to both VAS and McG, and was statistically similar among hemi mandibles with and without retromolar canal (Wilcoxon>0.05); however, those without retromolar canal presented greater reduction in patient response in 6 out of 9 cases. Therefore, the retromolar canal is not a determinant factor of inferior alveolar nerve block failure. 2023 artículo científico 1659-1046 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=499574842012 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4995/499574842012/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4995/499574842012/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4995/499574842012/499574842012.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4995/499574842012/movil 10.15517/IJDS.2022.52179 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4995 Odovtos - International Journal of Dental Sciences application/pdf Universidad de Costa Rica Odovtos - International Journal of Dental Sciences (Costa Rica) Num.1 Vol.25 |
