From 10 to 15 of the 1 per cent, solutionis sufficient to produce anesthesia without distorting the operative mental block by the extra-oral route (page 109) is a procedurewhich has the advantage of being cleaner than the above describedwedge-shaped infiltration and of dismissing all possibilities of con-taminating the healthy tissues surrounding the lesion. If the lesionlies at the angle of the mouth, a very wide anesthetic field is obtained byblocking the mandibular nerve at the foramen o
