Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome of this study will be the success rate of 4% lignocaine and 4% articaine anesthesia in surgery after a period of 15 minutesTimepoint: After 15 minutes of delivery of local anaesthesia

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary outcome variables that could interpret the primary outcome are pinprick test pain score, anesthetic injection pain, intra-operative pain scores at every step of the surgical procedure, immediate post-operative pain, need for additional anesthesia, the total volume of LA used and patientsâ?? satisfaction with the anesthetic. Thus, these outcome variables will be measured and compared in this studyTimepoint: Visual analogue scale in all the outcomes after 15 minutes of delivering the local anaesthetic solution
