What Is OraVerse and How Does It Reverse Anesthesia Numbness?
After sedation, Dr. Morrison has noticed that some patients tend to bite their cheeks or lips. Sometimes this can cause a sore that lasts for days, or the patient may bite so hard that it causes bleeding. We want your experience here at Forney Family Dentistry & Orthodontics to be as comfortable as possible. This is one of the reasons that Dr. Morrison uses Oraverse with many patients after anesthesia.
At Forney Family Dentistry & Orthodontics, we believe that providing the best possible care also means minimizing your downtime! That’s why we use a “numbness reversal” product called OraVerse to get you back to your normal life faster. In fact, OraVerse brings patients who have received anesthesia back to normal sensation in half the time! Some dental practices do not use Oraverse, which can result in numbness in your lips and jaw for up to 4 hours, depending on the type of procedure performed. Oraverse helps the recovery time significantly. Your speech and sensation will return much more quickly with this product. Say goodbye to slurred speech and drooling!
Using OraVerse, available at our Forney practice, will greatly enhance comfort during recovery. No longer will you have to sit around for the numbness to wear off on its own. The medication will help to quickly eliminate the anesthetic from your system. This will greatly reduce the risk of biting your lips or cheeks during recovery. It will also allow you to return to normal activity much sooner.
A Faster Way to Recover After Dental Treatment
Some dental procedures require the patient to be comfortable during treatment and thus require local anesthesia. While the medication is important in controlling pain during the treatment, the numbness that is left after the treatment can be frustrating to some patients. Eating, speaking clearly, or returning to work can feel difficult until the sensation fully returns.
This is where OraVerse can really help make an impact. This medication is intended to help reverse the effects of local anesthesia and relieve post-dental numbness for those who want a quicker way to get back to their normal selves after their dental visit.
We know that you have a busy schedule. Sometimes it’s difficult to make time for a dental appointment. The last thing you want is to have to spend several more hours after your appointment recovering from the numbing effects of the anesthetic. Your comfort is our priority before, during, and after any procedure. If you have questions about Oraverse, please give us a call or email us.
