Mental nerve paresthesia secondary to initiation of endodontic therapy: a case report

Abstract: Whenever endodontic therapy is performed on mandibular posterior teeth, damage to the inferior alveolar nerve or any of its branches is possible. Acute periapical infection in mandibular posterior teeth may also sometimes disturb the normal functioning of the inferior alveolar nerve. The most common clinical manifestation of these insults is the paresthesia of the inferior alveolar nerve or mental nerve paresthesia. Paresthesia usually manifests as burning, prickling, tingling, numbness, itching or any deviati… Show more

“…due to injection of local anesthesia directly into nerve branches, or through direct contact of obturating chemicals with nerve during endodontics management [4,5]. Another cause of nerve damage can be the manipulation of the nerve and the surrounding structures during surgical osteotomies made for correcting maxillomandibular deformities.…”

“…The mechanism of induction of paraesthesia due to periapical infection may be threefold. The inflammatory process causes purulent exudate to accumulate in the mandibular bone, causing local mechanical pressure on the mental nerve [ 6 , 7 ] Toxic or inflammatory bacterial products [ 6 8 ] Adequate subsequent hematoma pressure [ 6 , 7 ] Direct invasion of nerve structures by bacteria themselves [ 9 ] …”
