Daily Question
|
An infraorbital block is useful to anesthetize one side of the upper lip. Using the intraoral approach, what tooth is used as a landmark for this procedure?
|
|
Answer
|
|
The needle should be inserted at the apex of the mucobuccal fold and directed upward, along the long axis of the upper first premolar tooth, until it is at the infraorbital foramen.
Schwartz 3rd ed. p 822
