Please help! what is that cream that numbs your tongue/mouth for a little?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Benzocaine: There is a host of topical anesthetics for oral numbing. Orajel is a popular one but there are many others. Go to you your local pharmacy or supermarket and see what is available. What are you using it for and do you need to see a dentist?
