Abstract

Objective: To identify different anesthetic techniques used in the mandible. Method: Descriptive documentary review of 15 articles located in PubMed database. Conclusion: The anesthetic technique with the best results in the mandible is the truncal technique, since it blocks all the nerves of the mandibular branch, i.e. inferior alveolar nerve, lingual nerve, buccal nerve, mylohyoid nerve and auriculotemporal nerve. The infiltrative technique is also very useful for blocking mandibular nerves, especially in the anterior sector or as a complement to the truncular technique.
