Abstract: The inferior alveolar nerve block is the most commonly used injection technique for local anesthesia of the mandible while doing surgical procedures. But it if found that this block does not alwat achieve 100% successful pulpal anasthesia.. Failure rates are found to be 10% to 40% in experimental studies. Gow-Gates invented a new mandibular block in 1973. This method of injection uses an extraoralapproach with the help of the landmarks, and the target site is the neck of condyle. Many studies have come to prove that this technique has more success rate (92 to100%) than the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block technique(65 to 86%). However, Todorovic et al. found that a the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block was more successful in anasthetising the area of interest than the Gow-Gates block, whereas Ågren and Danielsson , Montagnese et al., and Hung et al. found the 2 techniques provided the same success rate. Akinosi introduced a new technique for mandibular anesthesia in 1977. But, Vazirani also described the same technique in 1960 and so the technique was named as the Vazirani-Akinosi technique. The injection is a closed mouth technique. The landmarks for the injection are the mucogingival junction of the maxillary second molar. This technique is used when there was a condition of limited mouth opening, in cases of trismus, which indicates the use of the inferior alveolar or Gow-Gates techniques. Sisk and Todorovic found the VaziraniAkinosi technique was equivalent to the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block. Whereas, many others claimed that the conventional inferior alveolar nerve block was superior than the Vazirani-Akinosi technique. Further studies and research of Gow-Gates and Vazirani-Akinosi technique are needed to ensure their appropriate clinical use. evaluated. Material and Methods:
