Orajel Extra Strength gel form gives you control over the product during application and goes right to the source of your pain for effective and targeted relief.
Orajel Extra Strength contains 20% w/w benzocaine, a powerful local anaesthetic that works by temporarily blocking the pathway of pain signals along the nerves and relieves pain by numbing the area.
Toothache occurs when dental pulp (the middle layer of the tooth, containing nerves and blood vessels) becomes inflamed. This can be caused by a number of factors, including dental decay, a fracture to the tooth, receding gums or certain dental treatments, such as a loose filling.
Anyone who experiences toothache should seek advice from a dentist.
