Cetylite launches new Cool Mint flavor of Cetacaine Topical Anesthetic Gel
The anesthetic gel will now be available in a Cool Mint flavor.
Cetylite® Inc. recently designed a new flavor of one of its flagship products, Cetacaine® Topical Anesthetic Gel.
Cetacaine will now feature a Cool Mint flavored gel, which will be available by mid-June. Indicated for anesthesia of accessible mucous membranes (except the eyes), Cetacaine is primarily used to control pain and ease discomfort at the application site.
Cetacaine comes available in three forms; liquid, spray and gel. The liquid form is applied subgingivally into periodontal pockets, where the viscous drops are easily dispensed using the soft-tipped syringe. The spray form safely dispenses a mist of Cetacaine through the spray cannula to suppress the gag reflex when taking X-rays or impressions. Both the liquid and spray are banana flavored. The gel form, which currently comes in a strawberry flavor, is applied with a cotton swab or micro brush to the site where pain control is needed prior to injection and treatment. Cetacaine Gel reacts with body temperature to melt and absorb quickly into tissue, and distributes evenly and consistently.

“When it comes to products that are used in the operatory, it’s all about trust,” stated Kathy Perini, Marketing Manager of Cetylite. “When a clinician finds a product that they can rely upon and that allows their patients to be comfortable, they recognize the value and become very loyal. We know this because dentists and hygienists tell us their success stories all the time. We are proud to have earned their trust. Cetylite has been able to stand tall all these years by making products that stand the test of time.”
The triple-active formula of Cetacaine (Benzocaine, 14.0%, Butamben 2.0%, and Tetracaine HCL 2.0%) features a rapid onset of less than a minute, and 30-60 minute duration.
Cetacaine is a prescription topical, for professional use only. It is available through most dental and medical suppliers. For more information about Cetacaine and other Cetylite products and services, please visit www.cetylite.com.
