"I had a toothache after a deep filling. I figured it was from a high bite, but Orajel didn't seem to ease it much. The new Orajel toothache mouthwash did take the pain away. I did swish it about 5 times a day, but it did help 60%."

"I used Orajel after I needed to have a tooth pulled and had to use it along my entire bottom gum. It numbed the area very quickly, but it went away just as fast. It lasted maybe two minutes. I would not recommend the product to anyone."

"Bought this medicine after reading about it. Tried it on the areas needed, but it took forty-five minutes before it took effect. I've only done this twice today after buying it, but have now noticed a rash on my cheeks and around my mouth. Will not be using anytime soon and will be returning it back to HEB for a complete refund!"

"I have had teeth pulled, roots done, the works. I used it in between dental visits, and it helped the pain for short periods of time. I have had to use it more than 4 times a day due to mouth pain, but it's the only relief in the whole world for a bad tooth. I get my tooth pulled Monday, and it's the weekend before Monday, so I'm stuck with a bad wisdom tooth. The gel makes it easier to do my job at work. I eat and drink with the gel in my mouth, nothing bad happened to me. Just had to reapply once I was done eating or drinking. (Letting you know what everyday people do.) I did get lightheaded at work and almost fell, but I held onto something. But again, I'm using more than I should because it's a tooth that needs to be pulled. (Wisdom tooth.) But like I said, it's good to use for people waiting to get their tooth pulled or worked on. It kills the nerve pain for a minute or two."

"I bought some Orajel after painkillers didn't seem to be working. It numbed up really quick but went away in 5 minutes. After a day, I was left in more pain, it caused me to sweat, and the only thing left is back to the dentist."

"I have several teeth that need to be pulled, and while waiting, this stuff is the most relief that I get on a daily basis. As others have said: It doesn't last a very long time...but if I'm trying to eat or trying to go to sleep, it does allow me to do so. No negative side effects, and I also swish with the Orajel Toothache Rinse before each application, which seems to help it last longer."

"Use about 1/8 inch length strip from applicator and apply with your pinky to the affected gum line. Try not to swig, in fact spit out your saliva. This stuff can stay in place for 25 to 45 minutes so you can fall asleep. Goodnight and goodbye."

"Does not work on toothache, just makes it worse, in fact! Oregano oil is by far better in relieving pain."
