Topical anesthetics are applied to mouth tissues with a swab to prevent pain on the surface level. At Embry Hills Dental Care we generally use a topically anesthetic to numb an area in preparation for administering an injectable local anesthetic. Topical anesthetics also may be used to sooth painful mouth sores.
Injectable local anesthetics prevent pain in a specific area of your month during treatment by blocking nerves that sense or transmit pain an numbing mouth tissues.
They cause the temporary number often referred to as a "fat lip" feeling. Injectable anesthetics may be used in such procedures as filling cavities, preparing teeth for crowns or treating periodontal (gum) disease.
