Definition:
Local anaesthesia is defined as a loss of
sensation in a circumscribed area of the
body caused by a depression of
excitation in nerve endings or an
inhibition of the conduction process in
peripheral nerves.

Desirable properties of LA
• Should not be irritating to the tissues to which it is applied
• Should not cause any permanent alteration of nerve
structure
• Systemic toxicity should be low
• Time of onset of anaesthesia should be as short as possible
• The duration of action must be long enough to permit
completion of the procedure yet not so long to require and
extended recovery
• Should be free from producing allergic reactions
• Should be stable in solution and readily undergo
biotransformation in the body

Composition of local
anaestheticsLocal anaesthetic agent:Lignocaine Hydrochloride-2%(20mg/ml)
Reducing agent:Sodium meta-bisulphite-(0.5mg)
Preservative:Methylparaben-0.1%(1mg)
Diluting agent:Distilled water
Fungicide:Thymol
Isotonic solution:Sodium chloride or Ringer’s Solution-6mg
Vasoconstrictor:adrenaline-1:80,000(0.012mg)
To adjust pH-Sodium hydroxide
Nitrogen bubble-1-2mm in diameter and is present to prevent oxygen from being trapped in the cartridge and potentially destroying the Vasopressor.

Actions of :
Vasoconstrictor:Decreased blood flow to the site of injection,absorption of L.A by cardiovascular system is solved,decrease the risk of local toxicity,higher volume of local anaesthetic agent remain in and around the nerve for longer period,thereby increasing the duration of action,vasoconstrictor decreases bleeding at the site of their administration.
Preservative:Stability of modern L.A is maintained by adding caprylhydro-cuprienotoxin which includes xylotox and methyl paraben.
![Page 7: Local anaesthesia- composition and dosage in dentistry](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a74d501a28ab9d638b45a8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Reducing agent:These act as preservatives for the vasoconstictoragents.Vasoconstrictors are unstable in solution and may oxidize,especially on exposure to prolonged sunlight.Sodiummetabisulphite which competes for the available oxygen is added in the concentration between 0.05% and 0.1%
Vehicle:The isotonic vehicle reduces discomfort during injection.

B.R.I.T:
Bi-Rotational Insertion
Technique:
The operator rotates the needle in a back-
and-forth rotational movement while
advancing the needle through the tissues;
results in less deflection, less force is needed
for needle penetration.
![Page 9: Local anaesthesia- composition and dosage in dentistry](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a74d501a28ab9d638b45a8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Dosages:
To calculate the recommended dose,the
following must be known:
Concentration of the L.A
Dilution percentages of vasoconstrictors
Standard cartridge volume
Maximum recommended dose
Patients weight and general health
status,including medications.
![Page 10: Local anaesthesia- composition and dosage in dentistry](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a74d501a28ab9d638b45a8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Maximum recommended
doses:
Lignocaine hydrochloride with
epinephrine:7mg/kg
Articaine:6.4mg/kg
Bupivicaine:6.66 mg/kg
![Page 11: Local anaesthesia- composition and dosage in dentistry](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042716/55a74d501a28ab9d638b45a8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
A 100% solution has 1000mg of L.A per ml.Therefore a 2% solution has....
20mg/ml
A cartridge of 2ml,therefore has 40mg of L.A.
M.L.D for lignocaine hydrochloride is 7mg/kg.
For a 70kg man,the maximum dosage of L.A he can recieveis-7*70kg =490mg.
In 1 cartridge there is 2ml of L.A which contains 40mg of L.A,therefore the number of cartridges needed to achieve maximum lethal dose is 12.25 cartridges.(490*1/40)
