Abstract :

There are various anaesthetic agents that are being used in dentistry for the extraction of teeth in which lidocaine hydrochloride is the most common one. Now a days articaine came into picture due to its longer duration of action and its versatility. As there are insufficient studies showing the effect of articaine on various systems, present study is planned to compare the anaesthetic effect of articaine and lidocaine with adrenaline during the extraction of mandibular molars. 80 patients were divided randomly in two groups (40 each) and clinical variables such as duration and onset of anaesthesia, oxygen saturation, pulse rate, blood pressure and pain perception were recorded at different time intervals. Statistical analysis was done by using SPSS version 22.0. Mean and standard deviations, frequency distribution analysis, and the chi squared test were performed to calculate variables and p< 0.05 was considered significant. Statistically significant differences were seen in mean time of onset of anaesthesia (p< 0.001), mean duration of the anaesthetic effect (p< 0.001), and pain perception for the articaine group. No significant difference were found for oxygen saturation, pulse rate or blood pressure. Deposition of articaine leads to less pain as compared with lidocaine. Articaine showed to achieve increased anaesthetic success in dental procedures which may be due to its faster time of onset, less pain, longer duration, attributed owing to its greater diffusion properties.
