  • Title: Painless pediatric local anesthesia.
    Author: Ramirez K, Lee JK, Takara JT.
    Journal: Gen Dent; 2001; 49(2):174-6. PubMed ID: 12004697.
    Abstract:
    This clinical report presents a technique for painless palatal/lingual infiltrations for pediatric patients. When treating a young child, pain control is very important in order to gain the patient's cooperation. Procedures such as clamp placement, operative techniques, pulp therapy, and extractions cause discomfort, some more than others, requiring profound anesthesia. However, achieving profound anesthesia painlessly in the palatal and lingual aspects is difficult.
