What does the Opthalmic nerve supply?
Sensory to orbit, lacrimal gland, nose and skin of eyelids and forhead.
What are the branches of the Opthalmic nerve?
Lacrimal, Frontal, Nasociliary
What does the Maxillary nerve supply?
Skin of middle face, nose & nasal mucosa, upper lip, Maxillary teeth, palate and palatal gingiva.
What are the branches of the Maxillary nerve?
Meningeal, Zygomatic, Superior Alveolar (post, mid, ant), ganglionic (PS Pterygopalatine provides palatine, petrosal, pharyngeal, Nasopalatine), Infra-orbital
What does the Nasopalatine nerve innervate?
Palatal gingival, Palatal mucosa directly adjacent and behind the Incisors and Canine.

Also the periosteum.
What does the Ant Sup Alveolar Nerve innervate?
The Incisors & Canines

The Periosteum

The buccal gingiva
What hinders medial spread of LA across the midline when anaesthetising the Ant Sup Alveolar Nerve?
Fibrous tissue of the labial frenulum
When the Mid Sup Alveoar nerve exists, what doese it innervate?
The upper pre-molar teeth and often the MB root of the first upper molar.

Buccal Gingiva

Alveolar ridge periosteum
What does the Post Sup Alveolar Nerve innervate?
Upper molars

Buccal Gingiva

Periosteum over the bucal surface of the alveolar ridge.
Where do the branches of the 3 different Sup Alveolar Nerves arise from?
Posterior = Pterygopalatine fossa

Middle = Infraobrital groove

Anterior = Infraorbital canal
What are the branches of the Mandibular nerve?
Trunk - meningeal & medial pterygoid + tensors

Ant- Motor to MOM except Long Sensory Buccal

Post - Auriculotemporal, IAN, Mylohyoid, Incisive, Mental, Lingual (CT). All Sensory except mylohyoid.
Why is infiltration not suitable for premolars/molars?
Bone is too dense for anaesthetic to spread
What does the Mental nerve innervate?
Buccal and labial mucosa from 33 or 43 to midline (no crossover) and lower lip on the corresponding side.

Periosteum of incisors, canines and first premolars
How can the Mental nerve be anaesthetised?
IAN block

OR

at the Mental Foramen
What is anaethetised by an IAN block?
Lower lip, labial mucosa, labial gingiva and periosteum from first molar to midline (mental)

and

All mandibular teeth
Where is the Mandibular foramen located?
Halfway between the anterior and posterior border of the ramus, approx 1 cm above occlusal plane of lower molars.
What does the Long Sensory Buccal Nerve innervate?
Mucosa of cheek, vestibule

Gingiva adjacent mandibular molars and the second premolar.
How is the Buccal nerve anaesthetised?
Either next to the tooth to be extracted or via Buccal Nerve Block.
What does the Lingual Nerve innervate?
The lingual gingiva

Lingual Periosteum of all Mandibular teeth
What blocks are required for Cavity Preps and Endo?
IAN
What blocks are required for Surgical Procedures eg Exodontia?
IAN
Lingual Block
Long Buccal Nerve Block
What 2 nerves innervate the mandibular periosteum?
Long Buccal - from 38 to 35 or 48-45 buccally

Lingual nerve - from 38-31 or 48-41 lingually

Mental nerve - 1st premolar to midline.
What blocks are required for deep scaling and periodontal procedures?
IAN
Lingaul Block
Long Buccal Nerve Block
What are the brandnames for Lignocaine and their constituants? What are the max dosages?
Xylocaine - 2% + 1:80000Ad - 7mg/kg

Nurocaine - 2% + 1:100000Ad - 7mg/kg

(3mg/kg max dose plain)
How long do plain Lignocain and Xylocaine last for?
Plain
15 min pulpal

Xylo
90 min pulpal
180 min soft tissue
What is the brandname for Prilocaine and in what preparations is it available? What are the max dosages?
4% Citanest plain

How long do Buprivocaine preparations last for?
Block: 4hr pulpal, 7hr soft tissue
Infil: 45 min pulpal, 2.5hr soft
Order the 3 main LA's by increasing potency
Lignocaine, Prilocaine, Buprivocaine
How do LA's work?
Crosses membrane in non-ionised form the blocks ion channels, inhibiting electrical conduction along nerves
What types of nerve fibres need to be blocked for effective LA?
C Nociceptors to block pain (need 100% blockage)
A Delta for pain
A Beta for pressure
Why are amide LA's more desirable to ester LA's?
Esters are broken down by the body, therefore Amides are longer lasting
Why are LA's combined with stong acid?
To convert them to water soluble stable salts
List 9 reasons for Failure of LA
Not enough LA
Insufficient time given for LA to work
Analgesia ineffective in inflamed tissue
Intravascular injection
Incorrect technique chosen
Incorrect placement of LA
Variable patient anatomy
Individual variations in patients pain threshold
Individual variations in tolerance to LA
List 10 Complications of LA
Anaphylactic shock/Allergies
Failure to anaesthatise
Fainting
CV Collapse
Intravascular injection
Haematoma
