OrajelDental Gel for Rapid Toothpain Relief - Benzocaine 10% w/w, Fast-Acting Dental Pain Relief Formula, 5.3g

I purchased this Oragel anaesthetic gel as I have a broken filling which is pretty temperamental in terms of it causing pain, & obviously in this covid-19 situation its particularly difficult to get it seen to, so i was actually browsing for a decent temporary filling kit, when i came across this gel.Having years of dental nursing experience, on reading the active anaesthetic ingredients in this gel, & also on reading several reviews, i decided to opt for this, being ideal for temporarily & effectively relieving tooth pain.It arrived speedily, which was great. It is a very small tube, so it would be worth purchasing 2 of these. (To give a visual idea of its size, in comparison to a standard tube of bonjella, this tube is not even half that size), however, a little of this gel does go a long way.In its consistency, & clear colour, this gel appears very much the same as bonjella. It is also applied in the same way, of applying topically to the tooth with the tip of your finger. A pea sized amount is recommended, applied directly to the tooth, & massaged into & around it. It is fast acting, & 'really' numbs, - to the effect that if this makes contact with your cheek or your tongue, those also go very numb, - much like the numbness of a local anaesthetic dental injection, however, this gel, though is very fast acting, so ideal for instant relief, it isn't very long lasting, in its numbing effect, so although this gel can be reapplied once the numbness has worn off, this is most effective in conjunction with pain relief medication, such as paracetamol.Although this gel is marketed as a 'toothache' pain reliever, this can also be used on the soft tissue within the mouth, - the cheeks, gums, & tongue, - & is VERY effective, as in much more so that bonjella, & obviously much faster acting too.As for the taste, I would say that again, this tastes very much like that of bonjella. I wouldn't say this is a horrid taste, but it does deffo have a clinical taste, but isn't strong, & dissappears on its numbing affect.I would deffo recommend this gel, if you are looking for effective & fast acting relief, but due to its 'not long lasting', this may be more appropriate alongside over the counter pain relief medication, rather than a stand alone pain reliever.I hope you have found this review helpful 😉,xx

Toothache, sore gums or ulcers, this product is very easy to apply and extremely effective .Tastes ok,. Great value product for great relief..

I didn't really expect too much from this product, but boy, was I so very wrong!!I have a wisdom tooth that's VERY sharp, and occasionally, it cuts into the surrounding tissue, causing very painful areas. I was out of Bonjela and decided to try something new, given that it never really worked for long anyway.The clear gel contents of the tube have a minty scent to them, but the taste is akin to Corsodyl toothpaste - it's not foul tasting, but is definitely a taste you'll have to get used to. All that aside, the pain relief from this gel is phenomenal! It lasts a decent amount of time and has meant that I can sleep a lot better of a night.I've just seen that this company has other products, so I'll definitely be trying those in the future.

This is good stuff. Numbs and are you rub it on in your mouth so if you get it on the inside of your mouth or tongue everything goes numb. A bit like when you have injections at the dentist. Does give almost instant relief. However, the initial relief and numbness only lasts a short time. Maybe half an hour ish. Having said that I do still think that even when the numbness goes away there is still some residual pain relief that lasts for a while longer. Still a great product. Definitely recommend.

Brilliant... tamed my tooth pain to nothing.. while saving up to sort them out!

Used when my wisdom teeth were comming though and also when I had a cracked tooth from grinding my teeth at night. It really did help. The extra strength one is even better though. Always keep some in my medicine draw.

This is amazing. I had a 3 hour tattoo I put it on about an hour b4 we left. Wrapped it in cling film it was on round about 2 hours. It was brilliant. I never felt a think. You need to keep it on for at least an hour hour half. You put it on thick then wrap it as quick as you can. Then just leave it. But make sure you put a lot of cling film on tattoos are very painful. This is a good way to stay calm

It’s great product. But it arrives later than expected. But relived that I got part from refund
