Anesthesia Reversal

Salt Lake City Anesthesia Reversal

Your comfort is an important priority in our practice. So if you’re someone who dislikes the lingering numbness of local anesthesia and the way it can limit your daily activities, an innovative solution is here. Our office is now offering a new product called OraVerse™.

OraVerse is the first and only product of its kind to rapidly reverse the effects of local anesthetics containing a vasoconstrictor so you can feel, speak, smile, and drink normally in approximately half the time.1 OraVerse is not recommended for use in children less than 6 years of age or weighing less than 15 kg (33 lbs).

If you’re one of the many patients averse to the lingering numbness from local anesthesia, let’s discuss whether OraVerse is the right choice for you during your next dental visit.

For more information, you can visit with Drs Steven Smith or Morgan Smith.

Important Safety Information
Tachycardia, bradycardia, and cardiac arrhythmias may occur with the use of phentolamine or other alpha-adrenergic blocking agents. Although such effects are uncommon with OraVerse (phentolamine mesylate), clinicians should be alert to the signs and symptoms of these events, particularly in patients with a history of cardiovascular disease. Following parenteral use of phentolamine at doses between 5 to 15 times higher than the recommended dose of OraVerse, myocardial infarction, and cerebrovascular spasm and occlusion have been reported, usually in association with marked hypotensive episodes producing shock-like states.
