My delivery of local anesthetic for lower first and second molars just got better

Stacey L. Gividen, DDS, shares a product tidbit she uses in her practice that’s been a game changer in her delivery of local anesthetic—every...single...day.

I love me some 4% Septocaine (from Septodont; articaine) 1:100,000 epi infiltrations for lower molar restorations and even extractions—yes, extractions! Say goodbye to those lower IAs (mostly) and hello to a happy patient and keeping it simple.

I picked up this tidbit at the American Dental Association conference in Hawaii a couple of years ago, and it's been a game changer in my delivery of local anesthetic—every...single...day. Try it. What do you have to lose?
