Abstract

Background

Nowadays safe and efficient pain control is essential for today’s dental practice. That randomized controlled study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of

4 % articaine ,0.5 % bupivacaine and 2 % lidocaine for removal of tooth. The local anaesthetic solutions in tooth removal depends on the following points: latency, anaesthetic effectiveness and duration of anaesthetic effect.

Objectives

The objectives of an study are to evaluate the analysis of anesthetic solutions of 4% Articaine, 0.5 % Bupivacaine and 2%Lignoacaine using the Visual analogue scale ( VAS SCALE ).

Study design:

This randomized control study was performed in the oral surgery department from 1/8/2024 to 1/11/2024

The study between 150 patients of both sexes who come to oral surgery department for removal of tooth in the age between 20-60 years.

Materials and methods

The study involved 150 patients of both sexes, aged 20-60 years, who visited the oral surgery department for tooth extraction. Participants were randomly assigned into three groups of 50 patients each. The anesthetic solutions used for the extraction were as follows:

Group A: 0.5% bupivacaine with 1:200,000 epinephrine Group B: 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine Group C: 2% lignocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine

The comparative analysis was conducted to evaluate the onset of anesthesia, duration of pain relief, and overall effectiveness of the different anesthetics used during the extraction process .

Results

The results indicated that 4% articaine was superior to both bupivacaine and lignocaine in terms of efficacy for tooth extraction procedures. Articaine provided quicker onset and longer-lasting anesthesia, making it the preferred choice for routine extractions.
