- Abstract
To comprehensively review about the intraosseous (IO) anesthesia in dentistry. Effective local anesthesia is arguably the single most important pillar on which modern dentistry stands. The traditional aspirating syringe is the most common method by which local anesthetics are administered, newer technologies have been developed that can assist the dentist in providing enhanced pain relief with reduced injection pain and fewer adverse effects like IO systems for local anesthetic injection. The IO injection allows placement of a local anesthetic solution directly into the cancellous bone adjacent to the tooth to be anesthetized. Because infiltration injections with lidocaine solutions are not effective for anesthesia of the mandibular molar teeth due to the thickness of the cortical plate. The IO injection overcomes this problem by allowing direct access to the cancellous bone. The review is to know more about the uses, techniques, advantage, and disadvantage of IO anesthesia.
