Palatal Ulceration Complicating Local Anesthesia
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 12
Abstract
Abstract: Anesthetic ulcer is a rare condition occurring mostly in the hard palate possibly after a local anesthetic infiltration. The lesion is often deep and painful. Knowledge of the palatal anatomy and dental anesthetic, coupled with a slow deposition of the anesthetic solution will greatly help in minimizing the risk of local complications. Keywords: Anesthetic, complication, hard palate, necrotic ulcer, palatal mucosa, ulceration
