Abstract

The study comprised 53 patients with side effect history to local anesthetics. The reasons for the occurrence of adverse reactions to local anesthetics was analyzed, and the frequency of their occurrence in dental practice was studied. It was found that in most patients (85%) with 'allergic reactions' to local anesthetics the diagnosis was unreasonable and incompetent. In most cases psychosomatic reactions were mistaken for an immediate allergic reaction. The prevalence of adverse reactions to local anesthetics was 1 case per 448 injections (1:448), true allergic reactions was documented in 0.1% cases.
