Abstract

Objectives: Comparison of lidocaine 2% and articaine 4% in terms of injection pain and efficacy of anesthesia in children with Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH).

Materials and Methods: The sample included 7 children. Each child randomly received lidocaine 2% or articaine 4% in the first session, with the other solution used in the second. The two scales used are: the WBF Subjective Scale and the FLACC Behavioral Scale.

Results: Articaine injection was more painful than lidocaine in buccal and/or palatal infiltration without a statistically significant difference according to both scales. Both solutions were effective without a statistically significant difference according to the WBF scale. The average pain value of lidocaine at treatment (2.2±1.89) was lower compared to articaine (3.4±1.13(, with a statistically significant difference according to the FLACC scale.

Conclusion: There is no difference between the two solutions in terms of injection pain. Lidocaine is more effective than articaine in anesthetizing MIH-maxillary molars.
