Description
Mydent’s Defend Topical Anesthetic Gel is a fast-acting 20% Benzocaine formula designed to provide temporary relief of pain during dental procedures. It is widely used to numb the gums prior to local anesthetic injections, periodontal curettage, and the taking of impressions or intraoral radiographs.
What sets the Defend brand apart is its focus on patient comfort through superior flavoring. The formula is engineered to have no bitter aftertaste, which significantly improves the patient experience, especially for children. The gel has a consistent texture that stays at the site of application without running, ensuring effective absorption into the tissue.
