Topical anesthetics are applied as a gel, spray or swab to relieve minor pain before or after a dental procedure. Topical anesthetics can be used to numb an injection site before administering a local anesthetic or to relieve pain at home, among other uses. These materials should be easy to apply to the site requiring anesthesia, and as with all materials they should be used according to the manufacturer's directions.
