TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Self-inflicted trauma secondary to local anaesthesia in children JO - Case reports in dentistry A1 - Vempaty, Srikrishna A1 - Robbins, James SP - e4969484 EP - e4969484 VL - 2017 IS - N2 - Long acting local anaesthetics and inferior alveolar nerve block in children can cause loss of sensation and proprioception in a large area supplied by that particular nerve. Similar to the maxilla in mandible also, adequate level of anaesthesia can be achieved in the desired site of treatment by using a short acting local anaesthetic. Early return of normal sensory feedback after using short acting anaesthetics can be helpful in preventing self-harm.
