ULTRACARE®
Oral Anesthetic Gel

Description:

Ultracare is a 20% benzocaine w/v (oral anesthetic gel) preparation in a water-soluble glycol base. It is available in 30ml bottles, 1.2ml single dose syringes, and in 30ml IndiSpense® container syringes. Special flavoring and sweetening agents are incorporated to render flavors of superior taste (with no aftertaste). Ultracare is designed for rapid onset (10-30 seconds). Anesthesia usually lasts 8-10 minutes. Benzocaine has been shown to be a safe, effective anesthetic with little or no systemic absorption. The incidence of allergic reaction is rare. Ultracare is NOT for injection.

• minor dental procedures
• sore mouth and throat
• minor injury of the gums
