Dentists began using novocaine as a local anesthetic in the early 1900s, specifically around 1905. It was introduced by the German chemist Alfred Einhorn, who synthesized it as a safer alternative to cocaine. Novocaine quickly gained popularity for its effectiveness in dental procedures and became a standard in dental anesthesia for many years.
