at a ratio of 1/10, as opposed to the control agent, which will be non- buffered 2% lidocaine
1:80,000 with epinephrine.
Pain during IANB administration and the effectiveness of anesthesia will be assessed using
subjective wong baker visual analogue scale, objective sound, eye, and motor (SEM) scale, and
physiological pain scale (pulse rate) using pulse oximeter.
We will confirm the onset of anesthesia after lip, tongue numbing by probing the gingiva
