Dental pain in older adults is frequently under-reported, and when it is identified, managing it safely adds a layer of complexity that younger patients rarely present.
Orajel® Dental Gel and Orajel® Extra Strength offer an alternative that makes sense. Containing 10%[i] and 20%[ii] benzocaine respectively, both formulations deliver targeted, localised pain relief at the site of discomfort in just two minutes.[iii] They act directly on the affected area with minimal systemic absorption, and limited drug interaction risks, when used as directed.[iv]
Fast-acting, localised, and trusted.[v][vi] Recommend Orajel® to your older patients today.
