Sedadent

Sedadent is a topical dental analgesic and antiseptic formulation used for the temporary relief of toothache. It typically combines Eugenol (clove oil derivative) for its soothing and antiseptic properties with Chlorobutanol or Lidocaine to provide local anesthetic relief directly inside the tooth cavity.

Dosage by Body Weight

Apply a small cotton pellet moistened with 1-2 drops of Sedadent directly into the aching tooth cavity. Avoid contact with gums or cheeks to prevent irritation. Do not swallow.
