| Popis: | Paresthesia is described as an abnormal sensation, such as burning, pricking, tickling, tingling, formication or numbness. Several conditions can cause paresthesia. This article presents a case of paresthesia caused by the extrusion of endodontic paste (Endomethasone®) into the mandibular canal. The clinical manifestations comprised the numbness on the right side of the mandible and right lower lip, appearing after endodontic treatment. After a mandibular block and infiltration anesthesia a mucoperiostal flap was raised and the extruded Endomethasone® was removed successfully. A therapy with antibiotic, B vitamin complex and an analgesic were prescribed. The patient reported an improvement in pain and headache after one week later and in burning after two weeks. After a four months follow-up, she became symptom free. Also sixteen months later she had any symptoms. Normalization of sensation shows that the neurotoxic effects of Endomethasone® are reversible after more than one month from the first touch of Endomethasone® to the inferior alveolar nerve |
