Warnings and precautions
Before using Dentinox N, you should discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist.
Avoid contact with the eyes. If the medicine accidentally comes into contact with the eyes, they should be rinsed with plenty of water or physiological saline.
If severe redness or swelling of the gums occurs, or if there is a hypersensitivity reaction on the skin or mucous membranes, you should consult your doctor. The same applies to the occurrence of secondary accompanying symptoms.
Caution should be exercised in patients with congenital or acquired methemoglobinemia or in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, due to the increased risk of toxic methemoglobinemia.

Do not use with other local anesthetics.
Using Dentinox N with food and drink
Dentinox N should be used after eating.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility
The medicine is intended for children, but in the case of its use by an adult, there is a lack of data on the safety of use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, so it is not recommended to use the medicine during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Driving and using machines
The medicine is intended for children. There is a lack of data on the effect on the ability to drive and use machines.
Dentinox N contains propylene glycol and liquid sorbitol, non-crystallizing
Due to the presence of propylene glycol, local irritation may occur when Dentinox N is applied to the mucous membranes of the mouth.
The medicine contains liquid sorbitol, non-crystallizing, so it should not be used by patients with rare hereditary fructose intolerance. If the patient has previously been diagnosed with intolerance to some sugars, they should consult their doctor.
10 g of gel contains: 1 g of liquid sorbitol, non-crystallizing (which corresponds to 0.25 g of fructose), i.e., less than 0.1 bread units.
Caloric value: 2.6 kcal/g of sorbitol.
The medicine contains small amounts of ethanol (alcohol), less than 100 mg per dose.
3. How to use Dentinox N
This medicine should always be used exactly as described in the patient leaflet or as directed by a doctor or pharmacist. If you are unsure, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist.
The medicine should be used for a short period when acute symptoms of teething occur, applying a small amount of gel (the size of a pea) to the gums with a clean finger or cotton swab and gently massaging it in.
If applying the gel with your finger, you should wash your hands thoroughly before and after using the gel.
This procedure should be repeated 2-3 times a day, especially after eating or after oral hygiene procedures before bedtime.
Duration of administration
Dentinox N should only be used when necessary.
Dentinox N gel can be used throughout the period of teething. The same applies to the eruption of molars.
You should also pay attention to the information contained in the section "What is Dentinox N and what is it used for".
Using a higher dose of Dentinox N than recommended
The possibility of side effects increases.
In such a case, you should stop using Dentinox N and consult your doctor. If too much gel is applied, the excess should be removed.
Missing a dose of Dentinox N
You should not use a double dose to make up for a missed dose. You should not apply more gel than recommended in section 3.
4. Possible side effects
Like all medicines, Dentinox N can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
There may be skin and mucous membrane hypersensitivity reactions, particularly related to the presence of lidocaine. Hypersensitivity may manifest as, for example, burning or redness.
In the event of a hypersensitivity reaction on the skin or mucous membrane, you should stop using the medicine and consult your doctor.
