Description:

11020 Oraqix Anesthetic Gel is a cutting-edge, needle-free subgingival anesthetic created for dental professionals who prefer a less invasive alternative to traditional injectable local anesthesia during periodontal treatments. It features a combination of 2.5% lidocaine and 2.5% prilocaine in a distinctive thermosetting gel matrix, providing quick and localized pain relief for scaling and root planing procedures. Upon application, Oraqix remains in a liquid form, allowing it to flow easily into periodontal pockets. Within seconds, once it comes into contact with body temperature, it solidifies into a gel that stays in position throughout the treatment. This thermosetting characteristic guarantees targeted anesthetic action with minimal risk of dispersion or systemic absorption, enhancing patient safety as well as the effectiveness of the procedure. With a rapid onset time of around 30 seconds and a duration of action lasting up to 20 minutes per quadrant, Oraqix facilitates efficient chairside use, eliminating delays often seen with injectable anesthetics. Its specially designed delivery system enables clinicians to accurately apply the gel directly into the periodontal pockets using a blunt-tipped applicator, ensuring precise placement and enhanced comfort for patients. Ideal for adult patients needing localized anesthesia during periodontal maintenance or hygiene treatments, Oraqix is particularly suitable for those with needle phobia or for whom traditional injections are contraindicated. The gel’s effectiveness, safety profile, and user-friendly delivery method support smoother treatment workflows and help reduce procedural anxiety. Each cartridge of Oraqix is intended for single use and designed to promote hygienic, controlled dosing. This aligns with infection control protocols and guarantees consistent anesthetic application across various clinical environments. The product does not cause significant numbness in tissues beyond the treated area, enabling patients to speak and function normally right after the procedure. 11020 Oraqix Anesthetic Gel provides a contemporary, patient-centered approach to alleviating discomfort in non-surgical periodontal procedures. It allows clinicians to administer effective anesthesia without the need for injections, enhancing patient compliance, lowering treatment barriers, and fostering a more comfortable dental experience.
