benzocaine and Odontalgia

benzocaine has been researched along with Odontalgia in 13 studies

Benzocaine: A surface anesthetic that acts by preventing transmission of impulses along NERVE FIBERS and at NERVE ENDINGS.
dextran sulfate sodium : An organic sodium salt of dextran sulfate. It induces colitis in mice.
benzocaine : A benzoate ester having 4-aminobenzoic acid as the acid component and ethanol as the alcohol component. A surface anaesthetic, it is used to suppress the gag reflex, and as a lubricant and topical anaesthetic on the larynx, mouth, nasal cavity, respiratory tract, oesophagus, rectum, urinary tract, and vagina.
