It targets the lingual nerve, which carries feeling from the front part of the tongue and nearby soft tissues. It is commonly performed alongside lower-jaw dental anesthesia, especially during mandibular procedures. Its goal is comfort and pain control for soft tissues rather than the tooth itself."}
