1. Among 1,103 consecutive local anesthetics administered for cavity preparations upon vital teeth, 41 (3.7 per cent) gave incomplete pulp anesthesia or anesthesia of very short duration, and occurred in association with temperature peaks.
2. In this series of anesthetics only 2 (0.18 per cent) gave minor toxic manifestations. These occurred in association with temperature dips.
3. The temperature change, not degree either of heat or of cold, appears to be the causative factor for these abnormal anesthetic reactions.
