Pain elicited during intraoral infiltration with buffered lidocaine

R E Primosch et al. Am J Dent. 1996 Feb.

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of buffered lidocaine with self reporting of pain elicited during maxillary labial and palatal infiltrations of permanent canines.

Materials and methods: A standardized, prospective clinical trial of adult volunteers using a cross-over design of 20 paired injections using conventional 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine as the control.

Results: Failed to establish a significant reduction in pain scores for either injection site when buffered lidocaine was injected intraorally.
