About this trial

This study compares the effectiveness of two different volumes of buccal infiltration of Articaine for the extraction of mandibular posterior teeth. One group receives buccal infiltration of 1.8 ml of 4% Articaine and the other group receives buccal infiltration of 3.6 ml of 4% Articaine.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Intensity of pain

VAS scale is a validated scale measuring pain with possible score range from 0 (no pain) to 100 (severe pain).

Time frame
From reflection of mucoperiosteum till delivery of tooth out of socket.
2

Time of onset of anesthesia

It will be assessed by probing buccal and lingual soft tissue using a dental explorer every 2 minutes after infiltration using a standard digital stop clock.

Time frame
upto 10 minutes
3

Presence or absence of pain

A 100 mm Numerical rating scale assessing intraoperative pain. Possible score ranges from 0 (no pain) to 100 (worst possible pain).

Time frame
From reflection of mucoperiosteum till delivery of tooth out of socket.
