Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Ninety-five patients, aged between 16 and 70 years old, were included in this study. Patients were divided into two groups. Group one received Articaine 4% with 1:00.000 Adrenalines. Group two received Prilocaine with 3% Felypressin (0.03 I.U. per ml). Onset time of anaesthesia was objectively evaluated by using electronic pulp testing.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

85 patients in this study had successful local anaesthetic followed by extraction within the study duration time (10 minutes). However, there were six patients with failure anaesthesia (5 in prilocaine group and 1 in articaine group). By application Person's Chi-square test (x2), there were no significant differences in the number of the episodes of the anaesthetic success between articaine and prilocaine groups at time intervals (P-value = 0.5). T- test showed there have been no important variations within the mean onset time of anaesthesia for articaine and prilocaine buccal infiltrations (P-value =0.1).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Articaine 4% with 1:00.000 Adrenaline

if the patient was in articaine group, buccal infiltration technique was applied by inserting a short needle at the height of buccal sulcus along the long axis of the subject tooth for extraction.

Drug: Articaine 4%
Articaine 4% is dental local anaesthetic agent

Drug: Adrenalin
adrenaline is a vasoconstrictor

Active Comparator: Prilocaine with 3% Felypressin (0.03 I.U. per ml)

if the patient was in prelocaine group, buccal infiltration technique was applied by inserting a short needle at the height of buccal sulcus along the long axis of the subject tooth for extraction.

Drug: Prilocain 3%
prilocaine is dental local anaesthetic agent

Drug: Felypressin
Felypressin is a vasoconstrictor

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Does articaine, rather than prilocaine, increase the success rate of anaesthesia for extraction of maxillary teeth [6 months]

    to compare the anaesthetic performances of 3% prilocaine (the safest local anaesthetic) with 4 % articaine (the local anaesthetic with fastest onset time of action) when used for maxillary teeth extraction
