Numbing medicine study for people with high blood pressure needing a tooth pulled
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests two different numbing medicines in people with high blood pressure who need a single upper tooth pulled. The goal is to see which one works better and keeps heart activity stable during the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether using a smaller amount of a numbing medicine (articaine) works as well as the usual amount for numbing the area before removing a lower back tooth. It aims to make the procedure more comfortable and efficient.
This study compares two numbing methods for severe tooth pain (pulpitis) in a lower first molar. If you have a tooth that needs a root canal and the pain lingers after cold, this trial may help determine which anesthetic works better for you.
This study tests whether a long-acting numbing medication (bupivacaine) given after a root canal can reduce pain better than a standard short-acting numbing medicine. It is for people who need a root canal for a tooth that is causing sharp, constant pain.
This study compares two types of dental needles to see which causes less pain during numbing shots in the upper front teeth. It's for people who need treatment on both sides of the upper jaw and want to find a more comfortable shot.
This trial compares two ways to numb a painful lower back molar. If you have a tooth infection that needs a root canal, you may receive one of two injection techniques to see which works better.
