The benefit of local anesthesia is not limited to pain control but could also include hemostasis,achieved via the vasoconstrictor in the anesthetic; time management,because the dental hygienist can administer the anesthesia and obviate the need for the dentist and the patient to wait for anesthesia to take effect; and patient-centered stress reduction,which addresses the relationship between human need fulfillment and human behavior.
