Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -When administering the inferior alveolar block, the target area lies on the medial surface of the mandibular ramus at the inferior tip of the pterygomandibular triangle and adjacent to where the inferior alveolar nerve exits the mandible.
Detailed explanation-2: -Immediate local complications of local anesthesia include hematoma formation, tissue blanching, facial paralysis, amaurosis, diplopia, needle breakage, positive blood aspiration, and burning sensation on impingement of the nerve.
