Research Notes on Complications of Dental Anesthesia
In using dental anesthesia, it is a common practice to administer both sedative and analgesic medications to enhance patient comfort during the operation. Complications of dental anesthesia arise mainly with the unintentional injection into a blood vessel. In this case, hematoma develops with subsequent swelling and pain. However, this complication is treatable and goes away in no time.
