Topical Anesthetic Numbing Gel That Beats All The Rest
Many patients are afraid to go to the dentist and have treatment done due to fear of local anesthetics and getting numbed up, often foregoing needed dental treatment for many years until dental caries or severely broken teeth become virtually non-restorable.
Nearly every new patient coming to our dental office expresses fear and anxiety over getting numbed up, but once they have completed necessary treatment, they no longer are afraid. One of my favorite things as Office Manager and Dental Assistant is being able to help relax patients prior to treatment, helping them understand the need for a particular dental procedure, but also to find ways to help patients accept treatment with affordable options. I’ve also enjoyed being able to honestly tell patients that they will likely not even feel the injection due to the topical gel we now use, and other patients have commented on how well this numbing gel works.
Topical Anesthetic Gel-
Many dental offices apply some kind of topical anesthetic gel to the gums prior to giving the injection of local anesthetic, but after many years of searching for the best numbing gel on the market, we finally found one that works better than any other dental gel. Since we began using this topical anesthetic on patients, even new patients are no longer reluctant to have dental treatment completed.
The topical anesthetic gel we are now using in our office contains 100mg Lidocaine, 100mg Prilocaine and 40mg Tetracaine which comes already mixed by a Pharmacist and ready for use in a 30gm tube. Placing a small dab on the tip of a cotton swab applicator, and applying the numbing gel to the gum area for just a couple brief minutes, numbs the injection site so much that the patient often does not feel the injection at all.
It makes me incredibly happy to see patients who used to be very nervous and apprehensive prior to dental appointments, come in for treatment no longer fearing getting numbed up. When we first received the topical anesthetic gel in our office, both the doctor and I tested to see how well it worked on ourselves, and we were both shocked and amazed at how quickly the gel works to numb the gums. We of course had a little fun teasing each other while we talked about this gel, since it was obvious to both of us that it works so well and so fast, that it took awhile to wear off and we began speaking normally again.
I’m not even sure where the doctor heard about this numbing gel, but we have found it beats all the other anesthetic gel products on the market, and wouldn’t even consider using anything else. If your dental office is searching for the best topical gel available, please contact me for further information.
Does this numbing gel work on other areas of the body or just in the mouth? I have to give myself shots every week and I really hate the needle.
Hi Dawn, the topical gel would numb up any area of the body. It is by prescription only, and dentists are not the only doctor’s who use this gel. If you’re interested, please contact me through my “contact me” link for information on where you or your doctor can order the gel. It works great!
hi do know if it would work with a large tattoo?
i would like my back done but its going to hurt.
thanx
Hi Emma, this numbing gel would work very well to numb areas of the skin where a tattoo would be done. However, it is only by prescription, so in order to get this gel you would need your doctor to prescribe it.
