The anesthetic efficacy of articaine in buccal infiltration of mandibular posterior teeth
Article Abstract:
Sixty blinded adult subjects were given buccal infiltrations at the first molar site: one cartridge of 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine and one cartridge of 2% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine after at least one week. Anesthetic effects of the cartridge of 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine were better than the cartridge of 2% lidocaine and 1:100,000 epinephrine. Pulpal anesthesia will decline slowly over 60 minutes, however.

Anesthetic efficacy of the palatal-anterior superior alveolar injection
Article Abstract:
A single palatal-anterior superior alveolar (P-ASA) is reported to provide a pulpal anesthesia of the four maxillary incisors and usually the canines. A prospective, randomized, double-blind study is conducted to compare the anesthetic efficacy of 2 percent lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine and 3 percent mepivacaine using a computer-assisted injection system to administer the P-ASA injection.
