Reply To: Friday Questions: Emergency patient management with Dr. Koch

Hi Dr.Nasseh:
So in my Endo residency…i didn’t learn this concept of Marcaine by itself being myotoxic. Is there any paper/material you can share…which explains more about it. So, if a patient comes to you for emergency Tx…and if we cannot provide Tx that day. Let’s suppose, it’s hot tooth #30 (S.I.P and S.A.P.). What is your protocol?
.Would give Lidocaine IANB + Lidocaine buccal infiltration followed by Marcaine buccal infiltration? How does lidocaine infiltration help in reducing Marcaine discomfort.
Thanks a lot
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY A ROCKSTAR!
