Take the guess work out of selecting a topical anesthetic for soft-tissue procedures
without an injection. Hear from real hygienists as they share why Cetacaine
is their preferred topical anesthetic for real results.
Prescription Cetacaine is proven more effective than OTC 20% benzocaine topical anesthetic.
Used and trusted for more than 50 years, it is the ideal anesthetic for most soft-tissue procedures,
including scaling and root planing. Cetacaine application is easy and painless for patients,
and its up to 60-minute duration matches the length of most hygiene procedures.
Plus, with no waste (you use exactly the amount you need) and a shelf life of two years,
the overall cost is lower than other topical anesthetic options.

“Cetacaine has been a lifesaver, especially for my anxious patients. People who have been postponing treatment just because they are scared of the shots are now compliant and some of my best patients! So much faster than waiting for local anesthetic to take affect too.”

Brief Summary of Prescribing Information
INDICATIONS: Cetacaine is a topical anesthetic indicated for use on all accessible mucous membrane where pain control is required, except the eyes.
WARNINGS/PRECAUTIONS:
Methemoglobinemia: Cases of methemoglobinemia have been reported in association with local anesthetic use. Do not exceed maximum dose. If a patient shows signs of methemoglobinemia, discontinue Cetacaine and any other oxidizing agents. Depending onthe severity of the symptoms, patients may respond to supportive care, i.e., oxygen therapy, hydration. More severe symptoms may require treatment with methylene blue, exchange transfusion, or hyperbaric oxygen.
ADVERSE REACTIONS: Adverse reactions, such as hypersensitivity, including anaphylaxis, are rare. Discontinue use if rash or allergic reactions develop. The most common adverse reaction caused by local anesthetics is contact dermatitis. Cetacaine should not be applied for prolonged periods except under continual supervision.
