Risk Factors of Mandibular Nerve Block Failure: a Dental Student-centered Study

Inferior alveolar nerve block anesthesia is one of the most commonly used regional block anesthesia in dentistry. The factors that determine the success of this type of anesthesia which is applied so frequently, are not reported in the literature. It is to reveal and evaluate patient and dentist-based factors, especially in anesthesia applied by trainee dentists who have just learned this anesthesia block.

Inclusion Criteria:Patients who need to get inferior alveolar nerve block anesthesia for tooth extraction.Patients who are 18 years-50 years old.Exclusion Criteria:The criterion the investigators set for the success of anesthesia applied by trainee dentists is that anesthesia is going to be performed in the related lip sensation within 10 minutes.Complications related to anesthesia.
