Fear of pain is the number one reason people give for not making regular visits to the dentist, and unfortunately, a majority of dentists report anesthesia-related problems during restorative dental procedures. The administration of local anesthesia is the first procedure dentists perform at an appointment, and it inevitably affects every aspect of treatment that comes afterward. If dentists can improve their ability to administer successful local anesthesia, patient compliance and satisfaction will improve. This third edition of Successful Local Anesthesia is grounded in all the latest research to bring you up to date on the best, evidence-based ways to successfully anesthetize your patients using the newest technology and drugs available. It presents the rationale, advantages, and limitations of various anesthetic agents and routes of administration, with special attention given to pulpal anesthesia and the supplemental anesthetic techniques that are essential to the practice of dentistry.
