Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Anesthetic agent  Group A: 1.8 ml of Preheated lidocaine with 1:80000 epinephrine , by inferior alveolar nerve block, duration of action -3hrs 
Intervention  Anesthetic agent  Group B: 1.8 ml of Buffered lidocaine with 1:80000 epinephrine , by inferior alveolar nerve block, duration of action -3hrs Buffered by-Freshly prepared Buffered local anesthetic solution will be used, though self-life of solution is 1 week , for maximum efficacy it will be prepared once in 2 days. ï‚§ Preparation of buffered local anesthetic solution will be done under supervision in the college of pharmacy. ï‚§ The buffered local anesthetic solution will be stored in refrigerator. ï‚§ Under sterile conditions, 0.18 mL from a 1.8-mL vial of 2% lidocaine with 1:80,000 epinephrine will be drawn. ï‚§ It will be replaced with 0.18 mL 8.4% sodium bicarbonate using a 1 ml plastic syringe. ï‚§ The cartridge will be inverted 5 times to mix the solution, and no precipitation should be present. It will be shaken until the solution will be clear; to ensure that sodium bicarbonate is dissolved completely. ï‚§ The Cartridge will be loaded into metal syringe and then injected.  
Comparator Agent  Anesthetic agent  Group C: 1.8 ml of lidocaine with 1:80000 epinephrine , by inferior alveolar nerve block, duration of action -3hrs

Brief Summary  
.To compare the efficacy of conventional, pre-heated and buffered local anesthetics ie. 2% Lignocaine in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis on giving inferior alveolar nerve block checked on VAS scale.
 To compare pain on injection between conventional, pre-heated and buffered local anaesthetic ie. 2% Lignocaine in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis on Administrating inferior alveolar nerve block checked on VAS scale on mandibular posterior teeth.
The main purpose of study is to evaluate the pain pre and post operatively following an Endodontic access cavity preparation.
