{"title":"Effectivity of the Electronic Dental Anesthesia in controlling pain caused by local anesthetic injections.","authors":"M K Jayme,&nbsp;M E Concha,&nbsp;J A Sarino,&nbsp;H G Uy","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>This study was designed to determine if an electrical signal can effectively control the pain caused by injection of local anesthesia for mildly and moderately apprehensive patients. Five techniques were used in this study: the Mandibular Block injection, Long Buccal nerve injection, Maxillary Infiltration injection, Incisive Papilla injection, and the Great Palatine nerve injection. Two injections, using the Electronic Dental Anesthesia (EDA/EA) as the adjunct, and the other using a topical anesthetic ointment of Xylocaine 5%, were performed on 30 patients who passed the criteria we have set including the indications for use of the EDA. The volunteers were asked on the spot to report the level of pain they felt during the penetration of the needle in the mucosa, and during the deposition of the local anesthetic solution. A pool of 47 patients were gathered for this experiment. Of this number, 11 failed to pass for reasons of high-anxiety level and 2 were contraindicated for use of the EDA. Of the 34 who successfully passed the screening, only 30 patients were chosen. A total of 6 patients each, 3 males and 3 females, were used for the five techniques. The results of this study show that in all five injection techniques, the EDA is effective in blocking pain transmission. The EDA is proven to be an effective adjunct to local anesthetic injections.</p>","PeriodicalId":76681,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of the Philippine Dental Association","volume":"50 3","pages":"39-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21455790","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Reconstructive surgery for complex midface trauma using titanium miniplates: Le Fort I fracture of the maxilla, zygomatico-maxillary complex fracture and nasomaxillary complex fracture, resulting from a motor vehicle accident.","authors":"T J Nicholoff,&nbsp;C B Del Castillo,&nbsp;M X Velmonte","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Maxillofacial injuries resulting from trauma can be a challenge to the Maxillo-Facial Surgeon. Frequent causes of these injuries are attributed to automobile accidents, physical altercations, gunshot wounds, home accidents, athletic injuries, work injuries and other injuries. Motor vehicle accidents tend to be the primary cause of most midface fractures and lacerations due to the face hitting the dashboard, windshield and steering wheel or the back of the front seat for passengers in the rear. Seatbelts have been shown to drastically reduce the incidence and severity of these injuries. In the United States seatbelt laws have been enacted in several states thus markedly impacting on the reduction of such trauma. In the Philippines rare is the individual who wears seat belts. Metro city traffic, however, has played a major role in reducing daytime MVA related trauma, as usually there is insufficient speed in traffic areas to cause severe impact damage, the same however cannot be said for night driving, or for driving outside of the city proper where it is not uncommon for drivers to zip into the lane of on-coming traffic in order to overtake the car in front ... often at high speeds. Thus, the potential for severe maxillofacial injuries and other trauma related injuries increases in these circumstances. It is however unfortunate that outside of Metro Manila or other major cities there is no ready access to trauma or tertiary care centers, thus these injuries can be catastrophic if not addressed adequately. With the exception of Le Fort II and III craniofacial fractures, most maxillofacial injuries are not life threatening by themselves, and therefore treatment can be delayed until more serious cerebral or visceral, potentially life threatening injuries are addressed first. Our patient was involved in an MVA in Zambales, seen and stabilized in a provincial primary care center initially, then referred to a provincial secondary care center for further stabilization before his transfer to Manila and then ultimately to our Maxillo-Facial Unit. There was a two week-plus delay in the definitive management because of this. As a result of the delay, fibrous tissue and bone callus formation occurred between the various fracture lines, thus once definitive fracture management was attempted, it took on a more reconstructive nature. Hospital based Oral and Maxillo-Facial Surgeons are uniquely trained to manage all aspects of the maxillo-facial trauma, and their dental background uniquely qualifies them in functional restoration of lower and midface fractures where occlusion plays a most important role. Likewise, their training in clinical medicine which is usually integrated into their residency education (12 months or more) puts them in a unique position to comfortably manage the basic medical needs of these patients. In instances where trauma may affect other regions of the body, an inter-multi-disciplinary approach may be taken or consults called for.
