phenylephrine-hydrochloride and Tooth-Fractures

Sevoflurane, a potent volatile anesthetic, has been attempted to be used for procedural sedation. Because of lack of a commercially available sedation apparatus for sevoflurane administration, anesthetic gas delivery apparatus should be connected to general anesthetic machine for delivering sevoflurane gas. In this case, deep sedation was maintained during treatment of dental injuries involving the upper lip and incisor by sevoflurane insufflations via a nasal cannula. Especially, this may be advantageous in treating dental injuries involving upper lip and maxillary anterior teeth because the treatment is not disturbed during sevoflurane insufflations via a nasal cannula.

This report describes a patient with a history of trauma to root-filled tooth 11. Openings on either side of the palatal incisive papilla were found to be unrelated to the adjacent teeth, and patent nasopalatine ducts were diagnosed. Reports of this condition are uncommon, possibly because it is rare, or difficult to detect, or both. Most of these ducts are asymptomatic, and are usually treated only at the patient's request.
