A focused literature search to appraise the safety and suitability of articaine as a substitute for lignocaine was conducted. An evidence-based approach to the current available literature suggests that articaine is an effective and well-tolerated anaesthetic for dental use. However, practitioners should be aware of a possible, as yet unproven, link between 4% concentrations of local anaesthetic solution and nerve damage. Clinical Relevance: The purpose of this paper is to share the findings of our focused literature review with general dental practitioners and outline the available evidence on the safety and use of articaine as a substitute for lignocaine.
