Phentolamine to reverse numbing from dental local anesthesia in kids
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial studies whether phentolamine can quickly undo (reverse) the numbness from local anesthesia used during dental procedures in children. It may help kids feel normally sooner and safely use their mouth (like speaking and drinking) after treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be a child age 5 to 7 years
- Need a dental procedure that uses local numbing medicine
- Have normal lip sensation (you can feel your lips normally) before the numbing medicine
- Be able to do a child check for normal smiling, speaking, and drinking without drooling
- Be willing to join the study and follow study instructions

This trial compares two ways of giving dental pain control for children who need a specific injection near a back lower tooth. It aims to see which approach works better and is more comfortable for kids during treatment under anesthesia.
This study tests a new way to numb the back teeth in children with a condition called molar incisor hypomineralization (wiener teeth that are prone to decay). It compares injecting numbing medicine directly into the bone (using a very short needle) with the standard method, to see if it gives better pain relief during treatment.
This study tests whether cooling the injection site and using a sweet-tasting solution before the dental numbing shot can reduce pain for children aged 7 to 11. If your child needs a dental procedure requiring a local anesthetic injection, this might help make the experience more comfortable.
This study tests a new computer-controlled injection method for numbing children's back teeth before removal. It aims to reduce pain during the injection and the procedure, making the experience more comfortable for children.
This study tests whether a numbing mist sprayed into the throat before surgery can reduce sore throat pain children feel after having their tonsils removed. It compares two numbing medicines to see if one works better than the other.
This study compares two ways of numbing the lower jaw in children aged 6-8 before common dental treatments. One method uses a traditional syringe, and the other uses a vibrating device called Vibraject to give the painkiller. The goal is to see which method causes less pain and anxiety, making the dental visit easier for children.
