The effects of the vasoconstrictor epinephrine on the duration of pulpal anesthesia using the intraligamentary injection



LE Handler and DD Albers

The use of the intraligamentary injection to achieve dental anesthesia is becoming a popular alternative to conventional dental techniques. This study compares the duration of anesthesia achieved by intraligamentary injection using lidocaine, lidocaine with epinephrine 1:50,000, lidocaine with epinephrine 1:100,000, and epinephrine 1:100,000. Using chi 2 and paired t-test analysis, there was no significant difference found in the efficacy of the agents studied in achieving pulpal anesthesia.
