PSA Block Extraoral Hematoma

This results in a bluish-reddish extraoral swelling of hemorrhaging blood in the tissue within the infratemporal fossa on the affected side of the face a few minutes after the injection, progressing over time inferiorly and anteriorly toward the lower anterior region of the cheek.

Greater Palatine Foramen

Thus this depression can be palpated approximately midway between the median palatine raphe overlying the median palatine suture and the palatal gingival margin of the maxillary molar, starting near to the most distal maxillary molar and moving inward.

IO Block Landmark: Infraorbital Foramen

To locate the infraorbital foramen, extraorally palpate the midpoint of the patient's infraorbital rim and then move slightly inferior approximately 10 mm while applying pressure until the depression created by the infraorbital foramen is felt, surrounded by smoother bone.

Which nerve branches are anesthetized before MOST dental procedures?

Trigeminal nerve

To increase the reliability of local anesthesia procedures, the dental professional MUST learn to rely MAINLY on both visualization and palpation of

hard tissue.

Posterior Superior Alveolar/ PSA Block

in most cases anesthetizes the maxillary molars and associated buccal periodontium and gingiva within one maxillary quadrant if the middle superior alveolar nerve is not present.

Three nerves/divisions of the sensory root of the trigeminal nerve enters the skull

in one of three different locations in the sphenoid bone. 1) The ophthalmic nerve or division enters through the superior orbital fissure. 2) The maxillary nerve or division enters by way of the foramen rotundum. 3) The mandibular nerve or division passes through the skull by way of the foramen ovale.

Which local anesthic block anesthetized the largest intraoral area?

inferior alveolar block

Posterior Superior Alveolar Block needle is inserted

into the height of the maxillary mucobuccal fold in a distal and medial direction superior to the tooth apex without contacting the maxilla in order to reduce trauma, and then the injection is administered.

Two types of local anesthetic injections are used commonly in dentistry:

supraperiosteal infiltration and nerve block.

GP block does not provide anesthesia of the pulp or associated facial periodontal and gingiva of the area teeth

the administration of the ASA, MSA and PSA blocks or the IO block may also be indicated.

Maxillary Nerve

enters by way of the foramen rotundum.

Ophthalmic Nerve

enters through the superior orbital fissure.

Vazirani-Akinosi block

Which of the following are NOT considerations that need to be followed when working with a patient with an oral infection?

Will need less amounts of local anesthetic agent.

Nerve Block

a larger area of anesthesia than a supraperiosteal injection and thus additional teeth. With the nerve block, the local anesthetic agent is deposited near larger nerve trunks. This chapter mainly discusses this type of injection with its more complex anatomic basis.

Pulpal Anesthesia is achieved through

anesthesia of each tooth's dental branches as they extend into the pulp by way of the apical foramen from the superior dental plexus.

Anterior Middle Superior Alveolar/AMSA Block

anesthetizes a large area innervated by the anterior and middle superior alveolar nerves as well as the nasopalatine and greater palatine nerves in the maxillary arch.

Supraperiosteal Injection/Local infiltration

anesthetizes a small area, usually one or two teeth and associated structures, by injection near the apices of the teeth. For this type of local anesthetic injection, the local anesthetic agent is deposited near terminal nerve endings.

Middle Superior Alveolar/MSA Block

anesthetizes maxillary premolars and possibly the mesiobuccal root of the maxillary first molar as well as the associated buccal periodontium and gingiva within one maxillary quadrant if the middle superior alveolar nerve.

Nasopalatine Block

anesthetizes the anterior hard palate and the associated palatal periodontium and gingiva for the maxillary anterior teeth bilaterally from maxillary canine to canine within the maxillary anterior sextant. Both the right and left nasopalatine nerves are anesthetized by this one block.

Anterior Superior Alveolar/ASA block

anesthetizes the anterior superior alveolar nerve and thus anesthetizes the maxillary anterior teeth and associated labial periodontium and gingiva to the midline within one maxillary quadrant.

Greater Palatine/GP Block

anesthetizes the greater palatine nerve and thus anesthetizes the posterior hard palate and the associated palatal periodontium and gingiva of the ipsilateral maxillary posterior teeth within a maxillary posterior sextant.

Infraorbital/IO block

anesthetizes the infraorbital nerve and also both the anterior superior alveolar and middle superior alveolar nerves so as to cover the regions of both the MSA and ASA blocks with one injection.

Anterior Middle Superior Alveolar Block (AMSA Block)

can anesthetize the maxillary anterior teeth and premolars, as well as associated facial periodontium and gingiva of anesthetized teeth to the midline, hard palate, and associated palatal periodontium and gingiva of the ipsilateral maxillary posterior teeth and maxillary anterior teeth bilaterally.

Anterior Middle Superior Alveolar Block is commonly used in

cosmetic dentistry because after the procedures are completed, the clinician can immediately and accurately assess the patient's smile line.

Anterior Middle Superior Alveolar Block (AMSA Block) injection site

is an area on the hard palate superior to the apices of the maxillary premolars and approximately midway between the palatal ginigval margin and the median palatal raphe overlying the median palatine suture. The needle is advanced until the maxilla is gently contacted, and then the injection is administered.

Injection site for IO block

is at the height of the maxillary mucobuccal fold superior to the apex of the maxillary first premolar while keeping pressure with the finger of the other hand on the infraorbital foramen during the injection.

Injection Site for PSA block

is at the height of the maxillary mucobuccal fold superior to the apex of the maxillary second molar, as well as distal to the zygomatic process of the maxilla.

Injection site for the middle superior alveolar block

is at the height of the maxillary mucobuccal fold superior to the apex of the maxillary second premolar without contacting the maxilla

Nasopalatine Block (NP Block) target area

is both the right and left nasopalatine nerves entering the incisive foramen of the maxillae from the mucosa of the anterior hard palate, deep to the incisive papilla, and palatal to the maxillary central incisors. The incisive foramen is located at the midline between the articulating palatine processes of the maxillae.

The target area for the ASA block

is the anterior superior alveolar nerve as part of the superior dental plexus that is superior to the apex of the maxillary canine, just medial to and parallel with the canine eminence without contacting the maxilla.

Target Area for the GP block

is the greater palatine nerve entering the greater palatine foramen from its location between the mucoperiosteum and horizontal plate of palatine bone of the posterior hard palate.

IO block target area

is the infraorbital nerve after entering the infraorbital foramen. Within the infraorbital foramen, the anterior superior alveolar and middle superior alveolar nerves move superiorly to join the infraorbital nerve after it enters.

Crossover-innervation

is the overlap of terminal nerve fibers from the contralateral side of the dental arch.

Posterior Superior Alveolar Block (PSA Block) Target area

is the posterior superior alveolar nerve branches entering the posterior superior alveolar foramina on the infatemporal surface of the maxilla. The posterior superior alveolar foramina are posterosuperior on the maxillary tuberosity as well as superior to the apex of the maxillary second molar.

Transient facial paralysis can occur with which INCORRECTLY administered local anesthetic block?

mental block

If the mesiobuccal root of the maxillary first molar is NOT anesthetized by a posterior superior alveolar local anesthetic block, the dental professional should additionally administer a

middle superior alveolar block

Greater Palatine Block uses pressure anesthesia

over the depression of the greater palatine foramen posterior to the injection site to blanch the tissue throughout the injection will reduce patient discomfort. This pressure anesthesia of the tissue produces a dull ache that blocks pain impulses that arise from the needle insertion and local anesthetic agent deposition.

Injection sit of the GP block is the

palatal tissue anterior to the greater palatine foramen. The needle is advanced until the palatine bone is gently contacted and then the injection is administered.

Nasopalatine Block (NP Block) injection site is the

palatal tissue lateral to the incisive papilla, which is usually located at the midline approximately 10 mm palatal to the maxillary central incisors in case there is no telltale bulge of the structure of the incisive papilla. Needle is advance into the tissue until the maxilla is gently contacted and then the injection is administered.

The skull bones involved in local anesthetic administration by dental professional prior to effective dental care are the maxilla, mandible, and

palatine bones.

Mandibular Nerve and the motor root

passes through the skull by way of the foramen ovale.

The NP block does not anesthetize the pulp or associated facial periodontal and gingiva of the are teeth

so additional anesthesia by the administration of the MSA and ASA block or the IO block may be indicated.

Local anesthesia of the maxillae is more clinically effective than that of the mandible because

the facial cortical plate of the maxillae is less dense and more porous than that of the mandible over similar teeth, and anesthesia from the palatal surface is also possible.

Hard and Soft Tissue of the associated Periodontium and Gingiva are anesthetized by way of

the interdental and interradicular branches for each tooth.

IO block anesthetizes

the maxillary anterior teeth and premolars, as well as the associated facial periodontium and gingiva to the midline within one maxillary quadrant.

Target area of the MSA block is

the middle superior alveolar nerve if present as part of the superior dental plexus that is located superior to the apex of the maxillary second premolar.

The trigeminal or 5th cranial nerve provides

the sensory information for the teeth and associated tissue.

Anterior Middle Superior Alveolar Block target area is

the small pores within the maxilla of the hard palate. As the local anesthetic agent penetrates the pores, it has access from the anterior to middle part of the superior dental plexus, which then anesthetizes the teeth as well as the associated facial and palatal periodontium and gingiva.
