Abstract
Blood levels of local anesthetic agents after application in dentistry have been determined only in peripheral venous blood. A method of withdrawing blood from the alveolus after extraction of a tooth was developed. With a new simple gas chromatographic method with a low detection limit, concentration of lidocaine was determined. A correlation between the blood levels of lidocaine and the type of anesthesia and the localization of the extracted teeth was found.
