OraVerse Southlake, TX

It’s easy to confuse OraVerse with sedation, but they serve very different purposes. Sedation dentistry is used during your appointment to help you feel calm and comfortable before or while treatment is performed. OraVerse, on the other hand, is given after your procedure to help your mouth return to normal sensation more quickly by reversing the lingering numbness from local anesthesia.

Ask our Southlake, TX dental care team if OraVerse is the right choice for your next appointment.

When you leave the dental office and your mouth is still numb from local anesthesia, you might have to wait several hours to experience a return of feeling. In the meantime you might experience:

• Difficult eating, drinking and speaking
• Biting your cheek, lips, or tongue
• Burns from drinking hot liquids
• Drooling

If you have a big event at work, need to do any public speaking, or even enjoy a meal, you must wait hours for the effects to wear off or otherwise risk the possibility of embarrassing yourself. With OraVerse, you can cut the waiting time in half and get back to your life much sooner.

OraVerse is typically offered after dental procedures that require local anesthesia. This includes common treatments such as tooth-colored fillings, dental crowns, and other restorative or reconstructive dentistry procedures. Normally, these treatments leave your lips, cheeks, and tongue numb for hours, making everyday activities like eating or speaking difficult.

By choosing OraVerse, you can shorten this recovery period and get back to enjoying your day without waiting for the numbness to fade on its own.

There’s no reason not to opt for OraVerse during your next dental appointment. Unless you don’t have any obligations later in the day, this is the perfect solution to help you get back to life sooner. With OraVerse, you can experience many benefits including:

• No Biting Accidents – Since the feeling will return to your mouth much faster, you won’t accidentally bite too hard and inflict serious pain on your tongue, cheeks, or lips.
• No Hot Liquid Danger – If you want a hot drink after your dental procedure, OraVerse will help the feeling return much sooner so you don’t accidentally burn your mouth on a drink that’s too hot.
• Easy Speaking – When your mouth is numb, you might slur your speech or have a slight lisp. If you need to give a speech or present at work after your dental appointment, OraVerse will help you get ready much faster and avoid embarrassing speech problems.
• No Drooling – Almost everyone can remember a time where they drooled after a dental procedure. With a faster recovery from local anesthesia, you don’t have to worry about unexpectedly drooling at the wrong time.
• Safe and Effective – There are no serious side effects to using OraVerse and it’s proven as highly effective.

There’s no downside to using OraVerse after your dental procedure. Ask Dr. Green or Dr. Van Tassell during your next appointment if you’re interested in getting back to life sooner.
