. Regional anesthesia : its technic and clinical application . ytoward the midline, above the incisors, and the needle introduced to 2 cm. deeper (Fig. 79).

Absoluteanesthesia obtains from two to five minutes later. The needle should not be introduced further than cm. after ithas passed the inner side of the retromolar trigone; neither should it be BLOCKING OF CRANIAL NERVES 105 forced into the fibrous tissue lining the medial aspect of the ascendingramus, nor introduced too far away from the bone. The most favor-able condition for injecting the inferior dental nerve is that in which theneedle lies tangent to the medial aspect of the ascending ramus of themandible. If this condition is not realized when the needle has beendisplaced horizontally to the midline, the needle should be returned toits original position between the canine and bicuspid on the opposite.
