Methohexitone was originally introduced as an anaesthetic agent in 19561. It has been extensively used in outpatient anaesthesia since that time. In 1960 it was developed as an intermittent technique for patients undergoing restorative dentistry and for exodontia. A measure of the interest in this drug is reflected by the large number of articles which have been written about it.It has been claimed that the use of the minimal increment methohexitone technique in conservative dentistry banishes the dread of dentistry, that it is often safer than local analgesic injections, and that it produces better working conditions2.
