A member asked:
Is a mandibular nerve block the same as a regular local anesthesia injection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's a type: of local anesthesia, yes. Sometimes it's done in addition to general anesthesia, depending on the procedure you're having done and who is doing it. It blocks a handful of nerves in that genera area so that at least half of your mouth becomes numb.
