Cetacaine Liquidhas not been evaluated by THE DENTAL ADVISOR. Cetacaine Liquid was chosen as a 2010 Preferred Product by consensus of the Editors.
Cetacaine Topical Anesthetic Liquid’s triple-active formula (Benzocaine 14.0 %, Butamben 2.0 %, Tetracaine Hydrochloride 2.0 %) provides onset of anesthesia within 30 – 60 seconds and duration typically lasts 30 -60 minutes. Cetacaine is indicated to produce anesthesia on all accessible mucous membrane except the eyes. It is an effective alternative to injections for scaling and root planning or as a topical anesthetic before injections. The newly designed cap allows for direct loading of luer-lock syringes. Our consultants found this newly designed dispensing cap easier to use and more cost efficient, resulting in accurate dispensing and less product waste. Some commented that the new cap featured with the Cetacaine Liquid topical anesthetic kit results in a “great delivery system.”
