Product overview

SKU PIE-2101051

ID 686-0757AA Manufacturer - Pierrel Pharma

This injectable local anesthetic delivers fast-onset, profound anesthesia for a wide range of routine and advanced dental procedures. Formulated with articaine 4% and epinephrine for reliable depth and hemostasis, it's an efficient treatment and provides patient comfort. This Complete Buyer's Guide helps you determine whether this anesthetic fits your clinical preferences and procedural demands.

What makes this product stand out?

This anesthetic is valued for its rapid 1-9 minute onset and strong diffusion through soft and hard tissues, which can enhance anesthetic success. It is a practical choice for clinicians seeking dependable anesthesia with efficient chair time.

Key advantages include:

  • Articaine 4% delivers a fast 1-9 minute onset and profound pulpal anesthesia
  • Epinephrine 1:100,000 extends duration (60+ minutes pulpal) and improves hemostasis
  • Strong cortical bone diffusion improves mandibular infiltration effectiveness
  • Standard 1.8 mL cartridges fit aspirating syringes
  • Consistent performance delivers predictable clinical outcomes

What is this product made of?

This solution contains articaine hydrochloride 4%, an amide-type local anesthetic with a thiophene ring that enhances lipid solubility and tissue penetration, combined with epinephrine 1:100,000 as a vasoconstrictor. It is supplied in single-use glass dental cartridges intended for standard injection techniques.

At-a-glance comparison:

  • Articaine vs lidocaine: faster onset (1-9 min vs 2-4 min) and enhanced cortical bone diffusion
  • Articaine with epinephrine vs plain anesthetic: longer duration and improved bleeding control

This formulation delivers efficient anesthesia while maintaining a familiar handling profile.

What is it used for?

This local anesthetic is intended for dental anesthesia by infiltration or nerve block techniques. It is commonly selected for procedures where rapid onset and profound anesthesia are beneficial.

Common applications include:

  • Restorative procedures requiring fast onset (Class I-V cavity prep, crown prep)
  • Simple and surgical tooth extractions
  • Endodontic access and instrumentation (pulpotomy, root canal therapy)
  • Periodontal procedures needing reliable anesthesia (scaling, soft tissue surgery)
  • Mandibular infiltration anesthesia as an alternative to inferior alveolar nerve blocks

Why you'll appreciate this product

You benefit from a fast-acting anesthetic that delivers smooth procedures and confident pain control.

For your work:

  • Rapid 1-9 minute onset reduces patient waiting time
  • Profound pulpal anesthesia reduces supplemental injections
  • Strong cortical bone diffusion improves mandibular infiltration success
  • Standard cartridges simplify operatory use

For your practice:

  • Versatile anesthetic supports diverse procedures from simple to complex
  • Efficient anesthesia maintains on-time schedules
  • Familiar 1.8 mL cartridge format aids standardization
  • Reliable performance builds provider confidence

Together, these advantages support productivity, patient comfort, and clinical consistency.

Sizing & selection

Selecting the appropriate anesthetic depends on procedure length, technique, and patient considerations.

Procedure needs:

Articaine 4% with epinephrine 1:100,000 is well suited for short to intermediate procedures where fast onset improves efficiency.

Injection technique:

This formulation is frequently chosen for infiltrations due to its diffusion characteristics, while also being appropriate for nerve blocks per clinical judgment.

Patient considerations:

Review medical history for cardiovascular conditions, sulfite sensitivity, or other factors relevant to epinephrine-containing anesthetics.

Inventory planning:

Boxes of 50 cartridges allow practical operatory stocking while supporting consistent rotation.

This formulation supports clinicians who prioritize efficiency, depth, and predictability.

Explore other options

Different clinical scenarios may benefit from additional anesthetic formulations.

  • Lidocaine-based anesthetics (Cook-Waite) for traditional protocols
  • Plain anesthetics (mepivacaine 3%) for patients who should avoid vasoconstrictors
  • Longer-acting anesthetics (bupivacaine) for extended procedures and post-operative pain control
  • Topical anesthetics (benzocaine, lidocaine gel) and compatible needles (27-gauge short) for injection comfort

Maintaining multiple anesthetic options allows you to tailor pain control to procedures and patient needs.

Care & storage

Appropriate handling maintains product integrity and safety.

  • Store at controlled room temperature away from light
  • Keep cartridges in original packaging until use
  • Inspect cartridges for cracks, leaks, or discoloration before loading
  • Dispose of used cartridges and needles in approved sharps containers per OSHA regulations
Frequently asked questions
  1. Is articaine suitable for routine dental procedures?

Yes. You can use articaine 4% with epinephrine 1:100,000 for many routine restorative, periodontal, and surgical procedures based on clinical judgment.

  1. How quickly does this anesthetic take effect?

You can expect a rapid onset (1-9 minutes), often faster than traditional lidocaine formulations, depending on technique and anatomy.

  1. Can this be used for infiltrations?

Yes. Articaine is commonly selected for infiltrations due to its strong cortical bone diffusion characteristics.

  1. Does epinephrine help control bleeding?

Yes. Epinephrine 1:100,000 provides vasoconstriction that reduces bleeding and extends anesthetic duration.

  1. Are there patients who should avoid this anesthetic?

Some patients may require alternative formulations based on cardiovascular conditions or sulfite sensitivity. Always review contraindications and prescribing guidance.
