Benzodent Benzocaine Oral Numbing Cream, Gum Pain Relief for 12+, 0.25oz

Recently had dentures put in. Gum irritation is normal but when the dentist is closed , and I'm unable to get an adjustment, this stuff helped greatly. It's a thick cream that stays in place and acts as a numbing agent and good lubricant of sorts to help seat your dentures with less pain. The thickness is the key as gels squeeze out. Easy to use as I apply to my sore gum with a qtip, let in work for about 5 minutes, then apply some on the denture in the same spot. definitely effective, and helps ease the pain till I can get an appointment. Some will squeeze out but I leave it on the gum to help with denture movement. Didn't notice any bad or unpleasant taste. Definitely better than numbing agents or gels alone. Expensive but you don't need much and it's well worth it in times of need to help with discomfort

It's called a cream. It's really more like a paste. The best I can describe it is denser and stickier than the average toothpaste, but less dense than spackle. LOL But it will absolutely stay on your teeth/gums/dentures, the benzocaine really stops any pain, and it lasts. And that's what I bought it to do. 5 stars

Finally, a numbing product that is strong enough and lasts more than 10 minutes!

Bought for my sore spots from my dentures I definitely recommend does help with denture sores or sore gums.

In my opinion, this is more of a paste than a cream & it isn't the easiest to "rub in". That is the only thing negative that I am going to write about this product. I use this for a reason not listed. I have a condition called Trigeminal Neuralgia. It is nerve damage I developed after having a dental procedure (happens A LOT, be careful). It is horrendous pain that, in my case, affects my mouth. I have continual pain that feels as if there is a deep cut at my lower gum line & acid has been poured into it. That continual pain is also on the inside of my jaw. I will often use this on both places & it honestly helps me. It's a texture that takes a little getting use to but it stops the pain for a while. Better than anything else I have tried. So anyone who has Trigeminal Neuralgia, give this a try; God knows, we're trying everything we can think of to combat the pain.....might as well try this; you maybe surprised!

First a little back story. I just had all of my upper teeth extracted on 11.4.24 and got an immediate denture. The dentist placed the denture in right after extraction and I went in to my denturist on 11.6.24 for a re line. I read about this in a group online and everything about it sounded good. I was having immense pain putting in my denture in between re lines, from the swelling, etc. after I read about it, I ordered it. When I got it I put a little bit on my gums and denture where the sore spots are. I put it on my gums first then let it set up a little bit and let the pain relief part kick in before putting in my denture. It helps so much and a lot better than nothing at all. My eyes don’t water anymore in between re lines. It’s super easy to apply and remove. And a very little bit does go a long way. This little tube I bought will last me a long time. All in all, I’m very happy with my purchase and I highly recommend it.

This stuff really works. No gimmicks here. It doesn’t have that awful strong flavor that other products like orajel and ambisol have. You can barely taste anything at all. Very neutral. It sticks exactly where you put it, and it does not budge at all. A little bit goes a long way. I cracked a tooth, sheered a piece of it right off which left me with a big hole in a molar and an exposed nerve. It hurt like hell. Orajel and ambisol couldn’t touch it. I began resorting to lidocaine spray which was not even for oral application but I was desperate. Then I found this and bought it. Was shocked that it worked. And it kept that tooth protected until I could get back to the dentist. Every time that nerve would start to throb and cause uncontrollable pain, I would put the tiniest amount of this benzodent in it and within seconds the pain would stop. The hole would stay full with benzodent, and would eventually come out throughout the day from eating and drinking. But it kept that nerve numb and protected, and super easy to reapply. Idk what kind of sorcery they use to get it to stick exactly whatever it touches but it’s impressive. I can see how this would be a lifesaver for someone with a denture or partial.

I have dentures, and sometimes they hurt. I got this because it was recommended, but the gel is hard to deal with. It doesn’t stay where you put it. So I think that I would find something with a better applicator.
