Method of Anesthesia When planning the placement of anterior mandibular implant: infiltration into vestibule is satisfactory, although the lingual side of ridge must be anesthetized as well Avoid the mental foramen blook. It may result in a higher-than-expected number of long-lasting dysesthesias

Inthe posterior mandible: it is preferable to use infiltration anesthesia rather than nerve blocks Soft tissue and bone anesthesia can be achieved with satisfactory depth, but the lower lip will not become anesthetized

Ifthe rotary instruments approach the mandiblar canal, the patient is able to offer a warning, the lip will begin to tingle, or a sensation of heat may be expressed By infiltration a significant safety factor can be built into the procedure

Although infiltration adds a more safety factor But still nerve block technique in the mandiblar implant is widely being used by implant practitioners

When planning for implant placement in the maxilla infiltration anesthesia will be sufficient

Other techniques can be used in maxilla for deeper and more effeicient anesthasia as: the infra orbital nerve block and maxillary nerve block, but these techniques need well trained hands
