NCT05804630

Brief Summary

Local anesthesia drugs and anesthesia technique play an imperative role in dental treatment. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of different dental local anesthetics drugs and brands in clinical use for the extraction of wisdom teeth.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Hemodynamic measures

    Including heart rate (HR)

    Recorded immediate before local anesthesia, immediate after local anesthesia, 5 minutes after local anesthesia and immediate after surgery

  • Hemodynamic measures

    Blood pressure (Systolic pressure and diastolic pressure)

    Recorded immediate before local anesthesia, immediate after local anesthesia, 5 minutes after local anesthesia and immediate after surgery

  • O2 saturation (SpO2)

    O2 saturation (SpO2)

    Recorded immediate before local anesthesia, immediate after local anesthesia, 5 minutes after local anesthesia and immediate after surgery

  • Pain and satisfaction of the surgery

    Pain according to VAS (0-10) and satisfaction score (1-5, "1" being the least satisfactory and "5" being the most satisfactory)

    Recorded immediate after each dental extraction surgery

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Adverse events of anesthesia

    Recorded during and interview the patient immediate after each dental extraction surgery

Study Arms (4)

Experiment 1, arm 1: Articaine infiltration anesthesia

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This arm aims to compare efficacy and safety of infiltration anesthesia of Articaine (Orabloc®) to block anesthesia of Lidocaine (Octocaine®). It would be a split-mouth study design. The patient in this arm would be randomly assigned to one anesthetic agent and technique at one side (left or right) of the wisdom tooth surgery first, and the other side (left or right) of wisdom tooth surgery would use the other anesthetic agent and technique accordingly.

Drug: Different dental anesthetic agents during wisdom tooth surgery (Orabloc®, Octocaine®, and Xylestesin-A®)

Experiment 1, arm 2: Lidocaine block anesthesia

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This arm aims to compare efficacy and safety of infiltration anesthesia of Articaine (Orabloc®) to block anesthesia of Lidocaine (Octocaine®). It would be a split-mouth study design. The patient in this arm would be randomly assigned to one anesthetic agent and technique at one side (left or right) of the wisdom tooth surgery first, and the other side (left or right) of wisdom tooth surgery would use the other anesthetic agent and technique accordingly.

Drug: Different dental anesthetic agents during wisdom tooth surgery (Orabloc®, Octocaine®, and Xylestesin-A®)

Experiment 2, arm 1: Lidocaine+1:100000 adrenaline block anesthesia

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This arm aims to compare efficacy and safety of block anesthesia of Lidocaine containing different concentration of epinephrine (adrenaline), i.e. Octocaine® (Lidocaine+1:100000 adrenaline) vs. Xylestesin-A® (Lidocaine+1:80000 adrenaline). It would be a split-mouth study design. The patients in this arm would be randomly assigned to one anesthetic agent at one side (left or right) of the wisdom tooth surgery first, and the other side (left or right) of wisdom tooth surgery would use the other anesthetic agent accordingly.

Interventions

As mentioned in arm/group descriptions. The amount of dental anesthetic agents used during the surgery will be tailored for patient according to their response, which will not exceed the recommended dosage described in the instruction of the product. The amount of the drug used during the surgery will be recorded.

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years - 60 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Adults aged between 20-60 years old
  • Generally healthy or with well-controlled mild systemic diseases (such as well-controlled hypertension, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia)
  • Bilateral wisdom teeth with similar difficulty of surgery(according to Pell and Gregory and Winter's classification), which are indicated for surgical removal under local anesthesia

You may not qualify if:

  • Known or suspected allergy to amide-type local anesthetic agents
  • With systemic contraindication for tooth extraction, such as poorly-controlled heart diseases or diabetes, and severe liver or kidney diseases. Patients with systolic blood pressure greater than 150 mmHg or less than 90 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure greater than 100 mmHg or less than 60 mmHg are also excluded
  • With local contraindication for tooth extraction, such as previous irradiation to the surgical region, acute infection or cellulitis at the surgical region
  • Patients during pregnancy or lactation
  • Patients taking analgesic or sedatives in 24 hrs
  • Intolerant of dental extraction surgery under local anesthesia due to anxiety, dentophobia, or pain
