Toothache can strike at any time of year, but summer brings its own set of triggers. Cold drinks, ice cream, and chilled foods can aggravate sensitivity and underlying dental concerns, leaving patients in sudden and unexpected discomfort.
If toothache strikes, recommend Orajel® for fast and effective pain relief. The proven solution gets to work in just 2 minutes,[i] allowing your patients to get back to whatever they were doing.
Two versions are available: Orajel® Dental Gel contains 10% benzocaine,[ii] which is an anaesthetic that reduces pain associated with common dental concerns, like a broken tooth that might require a filling. If patients are experiencing more acute dental pain, the Orajel® Extra Strength containing 20% benzocaine may be more appropriate,[iii] offering greater relief with a similar fast-action mechanism.
By addressing pain there and then, Orajel® can help patients go about daily life until they can attend an emergency dental appointment to treat the cause of the issue. Start recommending Orajel® today.
