Comparison of Efficacy of 4% Articaine versus Buffered 2% Lidocaine in Mandibular Third Molar Extraction: A Prospective Analytical Study
Buffered Lidocaine was associated with reduced pain during injection and faster onset of subjective anaesthesia, whereas Articaine provided better pain control during the procedure. Both anaesthetics showed comparable durations and no postoperative complications, indicating both are safe and effective options when used appropriately.
