The lingual nerve block and the long buccal nerve block. A. The shaded areas represent the area in which anesthesia should be deposited for their respective blocks. The lingual nerve runs superficial and medial to the inferior alveolar nerve and can be easily anesthetized as part of the inferior alveolar nerve block. The lingual nerve block can be performed by depositing anesthesia about half the depth of the inferior alveolar nerve block. B. A diagrammatic representation of the long buccal nerve block. The long buccal nerve requires a separate injection of a small quantity of anesthetic just lateral to the molars in the buccal mucosa. C. Clinical photograph of the long buccal nerve block.
