Thank you Dr. Ryan you are an effective teacher. All the way from Philippines 🇵🇭 I want to express my gratitude in all of your videos! Thank you Mental Dental 🦷
Wow. Thank you for making these videos and sharing them with everyone! You've simplified so many convoluted lectures into concise, understandable key points! I think your videos are the best NBDE Part II prep out there and I'm so grateful to have found these videos when I did. (I FINALLY understand Radiology because of you haha.) You're super smart, an awesome teacher, and a true blessing!! Thanks again!
Dr. Ryan thank you for your videos, they are very helpful for our preparation. I have a question about the calculation of anesthesia by carpule, it can be summarized that: For 1% lidocaine= 18mg For 2% lidocaine=36mg For 3% mepivacaine=54mg For 4% articaine=72mg --------------------------- Epinephrine solution 1:100,000=0.018mg 1:200,000=0.009mg 1:50,000=0.036mg It's correct?
I’m taking pharmacology in 4 weeks and my professor breezes through these slides and barely answers question In a understandable way sooo thank you for helping!!!
Thank you so much for these valuable videos! I’ve been an RDH for 16+ yrs and have to take the WREB exam after relocation. This makes sense and is easy to remember👍🏼❤️
LOVE you guys!! Here is a contextual mnemonic that helps me - Lido ,,, Lil ones. Bupivi ,,, Big folks Not Lil ones. Mepivi ,,, May not need vaso const. Arti ,,, Art is Bi 🤣🤣😉😉🤗🤗. Hey I am scheduled to take the Board exam Dec 3 and 4. I retired in 2013 but miss the dental world SO much!! I want to show my sincerity about my desire to return by passing this big exam. If and when I do ,,, it will be because of you Dr Ryan and the fine folks of Mental Dental.
I remember the esters by a funny pneumonic I made up 😂; it’s weird but it gets the job done! ESTER: does COCAINE with BEN(zocaine), like a PRO(caine) TETRA(4) times a day. By the way, thank you for your video! It helped me so much!
THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEOS! THIS IS SO HELPFUL. I’m in my last semester and still barely have any ide in dental antibiotic, I dont have friends to ask to explain it in detail, so thankyou please keep this thing up❤️
Thank you dr. Ryan! One question though: I might be wrong but articaine comes in 1.7 mg capsules, so the calculation for 4% articaine should be 68mg. If you calculated articaine just for the sake of showing us an example in the same vein, I apologize and totally appreciate the work
OMG!! If you have posted this 2 days ago :(.... Half of the exam questions were about this!.. you have Summerside the most important things in L.A great job
First of all i cant thank u enough for breaking down the topic and helping me overcome my greatest fears of the exam for 4 years Dr ryan please may u make a collective video of the trickiest questions ??
Hii Dr. Ryan. According to me the answer to your practice question is 1.8mg because epinephrine is a part of the total 100% solution which weighs 1800mg so I think the calculation would be done acc to the solution not according to LA which weighs 18mg.
Hello! It IS done according to the total solution, not the anesthetic. The anesthetic % is irrelevant to the epinephrine %. That is the beauty of the system I talk about in this video--it doesn't matter what component you are measuring. 100% of solution weighs 1800mg. 1% of the solution weighs 18mg. Epinephrine is not 100% or 1% though, it is 0.001% (or 1:100,000). That is how we get 0.018mg. Don't worry about having a hard time with this--you'll see a lot of other comments here from people with a similar question!
If you read further down in the comments he answers this. He says that the 2% refers to the amount of local anesthetic, it doesn't have to do with the amount of epi, so we still use 18
Hey everyone , i was taught 2iamine/1iEster as well until I came across a board question which was asking between articaine/dibucaine/pipercaine/ropicaine got me fazed, As you can see all 4 choices has 2is, answer was pipercaine as an ester , might be helpful memorize this particular local 😅 ta
the names of the amides have two letters i, those of the esters only one i Lidocaine (2 i) amides Bupivacaine (2 i) amides Benzocaine (1 i) esters Procaine (1 i) esters etc
Dr Rayan, i didn't find any vedios related to physiology and biochemistry.Aren't those necessary for Inbde? but i found questions in dental decks. Thanks in advance.
The simple way to remember Amid group (all of them have 2 letter i eg Lidocaine. See 2 i. Prilocaine. 2 i s and so on. For ester group the word(drug name) contain only one i. 😅
All the sources, I have read so far, including dental decks says that Aricane 'is the only amide metabolized In bloodstream not in liver' -dental decks indbe vol 1 page 41, can you please clarify.
Hello Dr Ryan, thank you so so much for making this amazing video for us. Can I have a question here? I read in the dentin book it said that mepivacaine has the shortest duration of action of all amides, and here you said that articaine has the shortest, so I feel confused now as I highly trust both the dentin book and your videos. So do you know why it is different here?
im confused as how 1:100,000 epi is 0.001% epi in 1.8g carpule. Is it not 1gram : 100000ml ? so we would have to convert first to mg instead of grams then calculate the percentage ?
That first calculation has nothing to do with the size of the carpule, but rather the concentration of the fluid contained within. 1:100,000 written as a fraction is 1/100,000. If you type that into a calculator, you get 0.00001 which is the same as 0.001%.
@@mentaldental I assumed that the 1:100,000 would need to be converted before calculating percentage, thank you for putting it in simple words for me math's isn't my strong suit

Hello! I definitely think my videos are the highest yield resource you can use to study. I also recommend using the Boards Mastery App for practice questions and getting the Mosby’s book that I link to in my video descriptions for studying and additional practice questions. Best of luck to you!
So it's 0.0225 bc 1.8ml/carpule x 1g/ml x 1000mg/1g = 1800mg Epi is 1:80,000, so 1800mg/80,000 = 0.0225 I accidentally thought it was 0.045, using 3600mg of lido--but somehow we're not supposed to use this lido percentage? Getting back to the question if the epi is 1:80,000 and max dose of epi is 0.2mg --> 0.2mg / 0.0225mg per carpule = about 9 carpules
Is this channel specific for future dentists or do they include things for dental hygienists? I am on my final year of hygiene school and I am looking for extra study material
In pharmacokinetics, so mepivacaine has the fastest onset due to its low pKa. Does it also mean it has the shortest duration? (If only compare to other LAs in this video) thank you for the amazing explanation!
Hi Megan! Generally that is true, but it is not one-to-one since they are distinct mechanisms of pharmacokinetics (onset vs. duration). Procaine has the shortest duration of action (around 30 minutes), followed by lidocaine, mepivacaine, and prilocaine, which have slightly longer durations of action (closer to 1 hour).
These videos are comprehensive for the pharmacology information covered on the INBDE, but I will be making an Oral Medicine series in the future that extends on some of the concepts here!
Yes, you are correct. Mepivicaine (and Prilocaine), especially without epinephrine, has the shortest duration of all of the anesthetics. www.dentalanesthesia.com/pdfs/LA_ADA_PainPosterFront.pdf
Hello Rayan. Hope u r doing great. Can u please help me in LA dose calculation. Lidocaine in deck says is 300 mg max and others 500 mg and we know we cAnt exceed max. Plz guide. Which dose chat is accurate And 2ndly if in calculation of cartirage comes 1.95. Do we chose 1 or we chose 2 cartirage ? Plz help !!!

I remember amides by “MAPLE” like maple syrup:
M: Mepivacaine
A: Articaine
P: Priolocaine
L: Lidocaine
E: Etidocaine
+ Bupivacaine
Amide have 2 i and ester have single i
Maple syrup be BUSSIN
Amides have 2 or more "i" in their name and Esters only have 1"i".
I passed INBDE and Dr. Ryan was the biggest reason why! Thanks @mentaldental !
Congratulations dear
What was ur study material ?
Congrats!!! I'm still figuring out which study material I should use? any recommendations?
Tell us abt the exam plz
CONGRATS!
Congratulations! That's awesome!
Another way to remember the AMiDES is that they have an "i" and "caine" in the name and esters have only "caine" in their name.
That's awesome. Thanks for sharing that tip!

Hello. Third year dental student here. Just wanted to ask, do you have any videos on extraoral techniques for anesthesia?

Hi Dr. Ryan for the Q that u mentioned in toxicity slide. How many carpules? is the answer is about 20?
Hi what´s the exact meaning of "free base" in spanish, thx for all Doc
What’s the lidocaine without vasoconstrictor ? Brands
HELLO, you're doing a great job.
among Articaine and lidocaine which one acts faster?
Articaine has the faster onset of action!

hi doc is it right 11.1 the number of carpule for 0.2 mg epinphrine ?
