Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
Maxillofacial injuries are common in patients with road traffic accidents. Those with mandibular fracture/s are supposed to undergo repair with plating so that normal routine activities can be performed after healing. Our purpose is to give the Inferior alveolar nerve block which supply mandible, for intraoperative and postoperative pain relief. This also decreases the requirement of intravenous analgesics and their side effects.
