Discuss the procedural modification necessary if excessive tissue blanching and bulging occur when depositing anesthetic solutions for palatal nerve blocks
What will be an ideal response?
If either excessive tissue blanching or bulging occurs, continue with the deposition only after pausing to allow for diffusion and absorption of the solution from areas of swelling, and for tissue coloration to return to normal. This will reduce tissue damage from stretching and will allow normal blood flow to return to the area. In either instance, when deposition proceeds it should occur at an even slower rate (less than one cartridge per three minutes).
