FAQs About Mepivacaine
  • What is Mepivacaine?

    Mepivacaine is a local anesthetic belonging to the amide group, frequently used for local infiltration and regional nerve block anesthesia. It offers quick onset, high efficacy, and is particularly valued in dental procedures.

  • Why do dentists use mepivacaine?

    Dentists favor mepivacaine for its reliable and rapid numbing effects, especially for short to intermediate procedures. Its lack of vasoconstrictor (such as adrenaline) in many formulations makes it suitable for patients with cardiovascular issues or those sensitive to epinephrine.

  • Is mepivacaine the same as carbocaine

    Yes! Carbocaine is a brand name for mepivacaine. So, when a dentist refers to Carbocaine, they are using mepivacaine.

  • When is mepivacaine contraindicated?

    Mepivacaine is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to amide anesthetics, severe liver dysfunction, or certain cardiac conditions. Always consult a dental or healthcare professional to assess individual risk.

  • Does mepivacaine increase blood pressure?

    Mepivacaine typically does not increase blood pressure, especially when administered without added adrenaline (epinephrine). This makes it a safe anesthetic option for hypertensive patients.

  • How long does mepivacaine last?

    Mepivacaine’s numbing effects generally last 1.5 to 3 hours for soft tissues and up to 60 minutes for pulpal anesthesia. Its duration is longer than other non-epinephrine local anesthetics.

  • What are the side effects of mepivacaine?

    Possible side effects include localized swelling, redness, or pain at the injection site, as well as rare systemic reactions (dizziness, metallic taste, or allergic reactions). Serious adverse effects are uncommon when used as directed.

  • Is mepivacaine without adrenaline?

    Yes, dental mepivacaine is most commonly used without adrenaline (epinephrine), making it an excellent choice for patients who cannot tolerate vasoconstrictors.

  • Can I use mepivacaine if allergic to lidocaine?

    Mepivacaine and lidocaine are both amide-type local anesthetics. If you have an allergy to amide anesthetics, including lidocaine, you should not use mepivacaine without consulting your healthcare provider.

  • What percentage of mepivacaine is used in dentistry?

    The 3% mepivacaine solution is the standard dosage used in dentistry for infiltration and nerve block techniques.

  • Why Choose Mepivacaine 3%?

    Trusted by dentists globally No adrenaline/epinephrine formula Minimum risk for cardiovascular patients Rapid onset and predictable duration High patient satisfaction Effectively reduces dental pain and anxiety
