Benefits
Articadent is a true representation of the most profound anesthetic molecule Articaine available in the market. Articadent is not typically associated with increase in heart rate even with increasing the epinephrine concentration in blood by 3-5 times. Articadent is contraindicated in patients who are hypersensitive to products containing sulfite. Articadent should not be used in patients with congenital or idiopathic methemoglobinemia. Common precautions include aspiration prior to injection to help avoid intravascular injection. Local anesthetic solutions like Articadent that contain a vasoconstrictor should be used cautiously especially in patients with impaired cardiovascular function or vascular disease.
