    AbstractThe influence of two different dental local anesthetic solutions on plasma potassium levels during third molar surgery has been investigated in a single-blind cross-over study in twelve volunteers. The solutions employed were 2% lidocaine (xylocaine) containing 1:80,000 epinephrine and 3% prilocaine (Citanest) containing 0.03 IU/ml felypressin. The different treatments produced similar effects on blood pressure and heart rate. However, the effect on plasma potassium levels differed significantly in the early postinjection period.
