Dental nerve blocks provide excellent pain management for many oral procedures. They are easy and inexpensive to perform, provide a rapid onset of action, and work in concert with anesthetic and other analgesic modalities. This article explains how to administer various dental nerve blocks and discusses the indications and precautions associated with their use.
