Said to be the UK’s No.1 selling toothache gel, Orajel Dental Gel acts as a temporary pain relief measure for broken or painful teeth, until customers can have an appointment with their dentist. The fast-acting gel contains 10% w/w benzocaine, a local anaesthetic commonly used as a topical pain reliever.

It delivers targeted relief for toothache by temporarily blocking the pathway of pain signals along the nerves and numbing the area, says manufacturer Church & Dwight. The product is safe to be used alongside oral painkillers such as paracetamol and ibuprofen.
