For children younger than 2 years old, the ADA recommends using a smear (no larger than a grain of rice) of fluoride toothpaste. For children 2-6 years old, the ADA recommends a pea-sized amount, which is approximately 0.25 grams of toothpaste or 0.25 milligrams of fluoride. American Dental Association Council on Scientific Affairs. Fluoride toothpaste use for young children. The Journal of the American Dental Association. 2014; 145(2):190-191. doi:10.14219/jada.2013.47 Do not use Orajel to treat large skin areas or deep puncture wounds. Avoid using the medicine on skin that is raw or blistered, such as a severe burn or abrasion. Orajel used in the mouth may cause a condition in which the oxygen in your body tissues can become dangerously low. This is a potentially fatal condition called methemoglobinemia (met-HEEM-oh glo-bin-EE-mee-a). This condition may occur after only one use of benzocaine or after several uses. Seek advice before using if you are breast feeding, pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or suffer from allergies.

Nasem Dunlop, DDS, a board-certified pediatric dentist at Treehouse Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics in Foothill Ranch, California Sensitivity may indicate an underlying problem which needs prompt care by a dentist if pain persists. You have been told by your doctor that you have difficulty convertin a component of your blood called methaemglobin to haemoglobin. Please don't be worried, Most people taking this medicine will not experience any problems. Depending on your toddler’s personality, brushing their teeth can either be a breeze or a chore. Regardless of their temperament, they’ll need to have their teeth brushed twice a day, ideally with fluoride toothpaste. Fluoride helps fight plaque and cavities, and when applied correctly, is safe to use as soon as your child’s first tooth appears. You have had an allergic reaction to benzocaine or any of the ingredients in the gel particularly sorbic acid. An allergic reaction may include a rash, stinging, swelling or itching.

If you experience any other unusual or unexpected symptoms, you should consult your doctor, dentist or pharmacist. Khairnar M, Pawar B, Marawar P, Mani A.

Use the smallest amount needed to numb the skin or relieve pain. Do not use large amounts of Orajel. Do not cover treated skin areas with plastic wrap without medical advice. However, not every parent wants fluoride in their child’s toothpaste. Xylitol toothpaste is considered a natural alternative to fluoride because it can inhibit the growth of bacteria that causes cavities. But according to Nasem Dunlop, DDS, a mother of two and a board-certified pediatric dentist, xylitol needs to be in higher quantities to be as effective as fluoride. “Fluoride is better [than xylitol] at remineralizing the effects that daily acid and bacteria have on our teeth,” she says. Orajel Dental Gel is intended for short-term use until you can get to a dentist. It should not be used continuously. When brushing your toddler’s teeth, the last thing you want is for them to suffer from some sort of reaction. Grace Yum, DDS, mother and board-certified pediatric dentist, advises parents against using a toothpaste that contains abrasives (e.g., calcium carbonate), which are good for removing stains and debris but can be too strong for a toddler’s enamel. Like other medicines, this gel may cause some side effects. If this happens to you, stop using the gel.When selecting toothpaste for your toddler, the American Dental Association (ADA) Seal of Acceptance can be a great starting point to evaluate your options. Although all oral care products are regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the ADA Seal of Acceptance often goes beyond FDA requirements. When a toothpaste brand receives the organization's stamp, it means the product contains the right amount of fluoride to protect tooth enamel and has been rigorously tested to meet safety and efficacy requirements developed by the ADA Council on Scientific Affairs. To find the best toothpastes for toddlers, we analyzed more than 20 top-rated products and focused on ingredients, taste, texture, and cavity prevention abilities. We prioritized those that contain no artificial flavors, dyes, or SLS. We looked for products that are made from natural ingredients and are specific about age ranges and recommended use. An overdose of benzocaine can cause fatal side effects if too much of the medicine is absorbed through your skin and into your blood. Use the smallest amount needed.
