    AbstractMaxillary nerve blockade is not commonly used by general practitioners due to a lack of experience with the techniques involved and the fear of iatrogenic damage. Nevertheless, it represents an excellent method of producing profound anesthesia in the maxilla, with definite indications in selected instances. The anatomy and techniques associated with the maxillary block, as well as the indications, contraindications and complications are reviewed, and the use of the greater palatine foramen approach to treat a patient with a facial abscess is described.
