Abstract A common medical belief is that prenatal exposure to local anesthetics is infrequent and of minor concern. This paper documents substantial prenatal dental anesthestic exposure in 229 consecutive births in an urban hospital. Exposure rate is related to potential neonatal behavioral changes reported in animals and humans following prenatal anesthetic exposure.
