Can I get lidocaine and epinephrine injection if I can’t have epinephrine at the dentist?

I am getting a mole on my face removed next week. However I’ve heard that the injection for numbing is usually lidocaine and epinephrine but when I go to the dentist I can’t get epinephrine. Can I still get the injection for my mole if I can’t have epinephrine at the dentist?!
