Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • After topical application of the local anesthetic formulations at the oral mucosa, their influence on pulpal response was assessed by an electrical pulp tester.

    10 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The efficacy of the topical anesthetics was measured after a simulation of a local anesthesia in the application site (insertion of a 30 gauge needle until periosteum contact).

    10 seconds after removal of topical formulation

Study Arms (2)

Liposomal ropivacaine, topical

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The topical anesthetics were applied at the region of right and left maxillary lateral incisors at the buccal mucosa.

Drug: Ropivacaine

Liposomal ropivacaine, palatal mucosa

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Topical formulations were applied at the palatal mucosa at the right canine region and efficacy of topical formulations was accessed through insertion of a 30 gauge needle and injection of anesthetic solution.

Drug: Ropivacaine

Interventions

100 mg of the following formulations: Liposome-encapsulated 1 and 2% ropivacaine gel, liposome placebo gel and 2.5% lidocaine and 2.5% prilocaine cream were applied once during 5 minutes.

Also known as: Topical anesthesia in the palatal mucosa
Liposomal ropivacaine, palatal mucosa
