Local anaesthesia and nerve damage

Abstract

In a series of 5 lectures to dental practitioners in 2010-11 in New Zealand and Australia given by the Australian Dental Association's Dental Therapeutics Committee, course delegates were asked if they had experienced, or knew of others who had, patient(s) sustaining nerve damage after local anaesthetic injections. Of a total of 253 attendees at these courses, there were 18 instances, reported by a show of hands.
