Anesthetic: Many local anesthetics come without epi. One is called Carbocaine and it takes a few minutes more to kick in however it has no epi and last a shorter time (1.5 hrs). If your dentist uses a buffer like onpharma you can get apprx 6000 times more active ingredient. I use onpharma with all my locals and it works wonderfully well.
