Significantly reduce
treatment costs with Cetacaine® needle-free liquid anesthetic

As a dental office manager, balancing patient care with budget considerations is crucial. Cetacaine provides a cost-effective solution that meets both needs, ensuring optimal patient comfort and efficiency in your practice.

Cetacaine is no ordinary topical. Unlike OTC benzocaine gels or prefilled compules, Cetacaine Liquid is three anesthetic agents in one. Designed for periodontal applications, this special formula provides the duration and viscosity required for periodontal procedures, such as scaling and root planing. Tiny drops of viscous liquid are easily applied into periodontal pockets, readying patients in seconds for needle-free treatments that they will appreciate and return for.

Cetacaine’s long-lasting anesthesia and efficient multi-dose bottle help to streamline your hygiene department’s workflow, making it the smart choice for dental practices focused on excellence and cost savings.

Why Cetacaine® makes economic sense for your practice:

12x more treatments One multi-dose bottle of Cetacaine provides 240 quadrant doses, significantly more than the 20 doses available in prefilled brands.
Cost efficiency Cetacaine’s high number of doses per bottle leads to a lower cost per treatment, maximizing budget efficiency while maintaining high standards of patient care.
24-month shelf life Long shelf life of 2 years means less frequent ordering.
Less waste By allowing hygienists to draw up only the amount needed for each treatment, Cetacaine reduces waste compared to prefilled options, where unused portions are discarded.
Injection-free application Eliminating the needle for soft-tissue procedures ensures comfort and encourages compliance. Cetacaine dispenses easily with single use syringes and soft, pliable applicator tips.
Triple Rx formula for
long duration, small dose Exclusive formula produces up to 60 minutes of anesthesia meaning more treatments with less anesthetic, compared to prefilled brands which last up to 20 minutes and often require reapplication.

Brief Summary of Prescribing Information

INDICATIONS: Cetacaine is a topical anesthetic indicated for use on all accessible mucous membrane where pain control is required, except the eyes.

WARNINGS/PRECAUTIONS:
Methemoglobinemia: Cases of methemoglobinemia have been reported in association with local anesthetic use. Do not exceed maximum dose. If a patient shows signs of methemoglobinemia, discontinue Cetacaine and any other oxidizing agents. Depending on the severity of the symptoms, patients may respond to supportive care, i.e., oxygen therapy, hydration. More severe symptoms may require treatment with methylene blue, exchange transfusion, or hyperbaric oxygen.

ADVERSE REACTIONS: Adverse reactions, such as hypersensitivity, including anaphylaxis, are rare. Discontinue use if rash or allergic reactions develop. The most common adverse reaction caused by local anesthetics is contact dermatitis. Cetacaine should not be applied for prolonged periods except under continual supervision.

PEDIATRIC/PREGNANCY/GERIATRIC: Safe use of Cetacaine during pregnancy has not been established and should not be used during early pregnancy unless a doctor determines the benefits outweigh the risks. An appropriate pediatric dose has not been established. Reduced dosage is recommended among elderly, acutely ill, and very young patients (i.e., children 2 years and older.)

CONTRAINDICATIONS: Do not use Cetacaine to treat infants or children younger than 2 years. Do not inject or use in the eyes. Cetacaine is contraindicated in patients who are hypersensitive to any of its ingredients or are known to have cholinesterase deficiencies. To avoid excessive absorption, Cetacaine should not be used under dentures or cotton rolls, as prolonged contact may cause an escharotic effect. Routine topical anesthetic precautions should be observed.
