While dental anesthesia is generally considered safe, there are some potential risks and side effects. These include allergic reactions, nerve damage, and post-operative pain. Patients should discuss the risks and benefits of dental anesthesia with their dentist and ensure that they provide a complete medical history to avoid any potential complications.

Dental anesthesia companies are expanding their operations into emerging markets, such as China, India, and Brazil. These markets offer significant growth opportunities, as the demand for dental procedures is increasing rapidly in these regions.
