In 1971 AKINOSI re77r1e6 a new method of mandibular nerve block using an
intraoral,closed-mouth approach.
According to his report, this technique is simple to administer, well accepted by
the patientand produce profound local anesthesia of inferior alveolar nerve,
lingual neHe and long buccalrlerve.
Especially this method can easily be employed in cases in which the i aw opening
is limited.Author feyiewed 105 Patients, OY?f the 14 yell 7ld, W?f? divided into 2
group,25 Patientsadministered the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block, as
control group and 80, experimentalgroup was utilized the tuberosity approch
technique.
The following results were obtained:
Success rate of anesthesia in the conventional technique was 88.0% while in the
tuberosityapproach technique showed 91.3%.
Rate of positive blood aspiration in the conventional technique was 12.07o, the
tuberosityapproach technique was 8.7%.
The onset of anesthesia in the tuberosity approach technique was faster than in
the con-ventional technique.
By using an intra oral, closed-mouth approach, lite tuberosity approach technique
has manyadvantages than the conventional technique, and proved especially valuable
in patient withlimited mouth opening.
