Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The primary outcome tested will be the anesthetic success. Results will be recorded in a Microsoft Excel worksheet.<br>(Microsoft Office Excel 2017; Microsoft Corp, Redmond, WA) and subjected to a descriptive analysis. Association tests with the dependent variable, success, categorized as dichotomous (success or failure), will be verified by Fisher's exact test. The null hypothesis tested will be that there is no difference in anesthetic success between patients receiving inferior alveolar nerve block and those receiving vestibular infiltrative complementation. Therefore, Fisher's exact test will indicate if there is an association between the group and anesthetic success, ie, if there is a statistically significant difference between the groups.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The secondary outcome analyzed will be the pain reduction after the anesthetic techniques, which will be verified by means of a modified Heft-Parker visual analog scale. The results obtained will be verified by the Two-way ANOVA test. Intra-group and inter-group analyzes will be performed.
