Efficacy of the TuttleNumbNow anesthesia protocol for mandibular first molars: a retrospective study

Inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) is the standard anesthetic approach for mandibular first molars; however, it has well-documented limitations, including variable success rates, delayed onset, higher anesthetic dose requirements, and potential complications. The TuttleNumbNow (TNN) anesthesia protocol introduces intraosseous (IO) injections as the primary anesthetic modality, followed by infiltration and IANB as a last resort. This approach seeks to provide rapid site-specific anesthesia at reduced pharmacological doses. This study evaluated the clinical efficacy of the TNN protocol for mandibular first molar procedures in a private practice setting.
