How long do you all leave Pronestesic or other local anesthetic?
We used to leave Adreacaine about 30-45 min. But heard others was over a hour. Now get Pronestesic 3ml per side still leaving a hour. But new worker says his last place only left them 15-20 min?

How long does your dentist leave it? We inject a bunch then turn straight round and de bud them so probably 15-20 mins but I’d say that 10 mins is enough. I’d say an hour is getting to the point of wearing off again

Agree, just did a batch, 10mins or so, then did them. No bouncing or moaning...

10 mins minimum or until their eyes look sleepy. Leave it too long and it will have worn off.
Edit. This was what we were taught on a calf rearing course when I was on the YTS, so not yesterday......

Adrenacaine was always 10-15 minutes. I used our first bottle of pronesthetic last week. Convinced it was just a bottle of water. Even the ones at the end who had been waiting 30-35 minutes for their turn fought like demons. Only got the very occasional one do that with adrenocaine!

Did you use enough, our vets said need to use a bit more pronestesic than you would adrenacaine. I think I use 5ml each side pronestesic, but have used a bit less adrenacaine in the past.
