ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the effect of intrapulpal injection in the pulpectomy of primary molars.Methods:22 petients with 44 diseased primary molars were divided into 2 groups(n =22 teeth).The intrapulpal injection with a computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery system STATM was performed in the experimental Group,and traditional infiltration anesthesia technique was conducted in the control group.Results:During the anesthesia process,the VAS value of the experimental group was lower than the control group(P ＜ 0.05).The pain control in the experimental group was better during pulp removal within 1 min.There was no occurrence of postoperative soft tissue numbness and factitial ulcer in the experinental group.Conclusion:The intrapulpal injection,administered with STATM,is more effective than traditional infiltration anesthesia in pulpectomy of primary molar teeth.
