Profound pulpal anesthesia is essential for the delivery of endodontic treatment.  However, local anesthetics are often only partially effective in treating dental pain originating from mandibular posterior teeth. Evidence indicates a significant increase in local anesthesia failure after inferior alveolar nerve block injection in pain patients versus normal controls. This presentation provides evidence-based practical tips for gaining effective anesthesia during endodontic treatment with a focus on mandibular posterior teeth. 
Definitive endodontic treatment provides substantial relief from odontogenic pain. However, pharmacotherapy is often required post treatment.  Use of analgesics as well as antibiotics will be discussed where current evidence is presented as to how best serve endodontic patients following treatment.

Dr. James G. Hupp received his DMD from the University of Pennsylvania in 1984. Upon graduating, he practiced general dentistry in the US Navy until 1993. In 1996, he completed his endodontic residency program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a Master of Science degree. He became a diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics in 2003. In 2009, he retired from the US Naval Reserves at the rank of Captain. He has remained active as an educator and in 2011, as Associate Professor in the Department of Endodontics at the University of Mississippi Medical.
