The anatomy of local anesthesia
Tex Dent J.
1998 May.
Abstract
This article has attempted to present a realistic assessment of the complexities and variability of the anatomic structures related to the induction of profound clinical local anesthesia. By reviewing this material with a good atlas of anatomy (or preferably a human skull), the clinician can better visualize the important relationships described. The firm understanding of all of these relationships that will result is necessary to treating patients with maximum comfort, confidence, and safety.
