Carbocaine® 3% Plain Dental Anesthetic – 50 Cartridges (1.7mL) | Septodont

Carbocaine® 3% Plain by Septodont is a trusted local anesthetic formulated without a vasoconstrictor, making it ideal for patients where epinephrine is contraindicated.

It offers a rapid onset of action—typically 30 to 120 seconds in the maxilla and 1 to 4 minutes in the mandible—providing predictable pulpal anesthesia. The anesthetic effect generally lasts approximately 20 minutes in the maxilla and up to 40 minutes in the mandible.

Manufactured with safety and patient comfort in mind, Carbocaine 3% Plain is methylparaben-free and latex-free, reducing the risk of allergic reactions. Each cartridge undergoes terminal sterilization and features Mylar-labeled glass cartridges to minimize breakage and injury risk.

Ideal for routine dental procedures requiring reliable anesthesia without vasoconstrictor agents.
