Comparación de la eficacia de las técnicas anestésicas mandibulares convencional y Gow Gates. Un estudio de boca dividida.

Abstract

Introduction: Pain during dental treatmens, specially oral surgery, increase anxiety, pain and the risk of complications, which underscores the need of a good anesthetic technique to manage pain. This study seeks to compare th0065 efficacy of the Conventional anesthetic technique and the Gow Gates technique. Matherials and method: This is a quantitative, experimental and longitudinal study with a sample of 16 patients between 18-30 years old without any pulpal or periapical pathology. Results: No significant differences were observed in the onset, pain and the effect of anxiety on the anesthetic action. However there was evidence of a significant reduction of the diastolic blood pressure between both techniques. Conclusion: Both anesthetic techniques evidenced similar results in all the parameters analyzed in this study. Future investigations should compare the duration of the anesthetic effect of both techniques.
