Anestesia controlada eletronicamente em pulpite irreversível sintomática – Revisão de Literatura

Abstract

Asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis is a pulp condition commonly associated with aggression caused by dental caries to the pulp tissue, which leads to the presence of chronic inflammation triggering irreversible pulp alterations, and pulpectomy is indicated. Due to pulpal changes such as the presence of pro-inflammatory substances, increased hydrostatic pressure and increased pH associated with the chronic inflammation process, as well as mandibular bone density, alveolar nerve block (BNAI), for the treatment of teeth with asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis, and makes it difficult. As an alternative for the execution of the BNAI through the use of carpule, an electronically controlled anesthesia technique was developed, which suggests the reduction of pain associated with needle puncture, as well as satisfactory analgesia. Therefore, the objective of this study is to carry out a literature review in order to investigate the efficacy of electronically controlled anesthesia in the BNAI in patients with asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis in mandibular molars. The bibliographic research was carried out from December/2017 to January/2018 on digital platforms and magazines, including scientific articles published in English and in a period of 10 years in relation to the year of search. The data obtained from the analysis of the articles will be compiled and discussed on this present review.
