Why Do Dentists Use Compounded Medication?
Dentists are medical professionals, just like doctors, and they require several different medications to ease the treatment of their patients. By working closely with our experienced compounding pharmacist in central Missouri, dentists can prescribe personalized medications to help patients with several different aspects of their oral health, including...
- Dry Socket Treatments
- Canker Sores
- Gum Disease
- Bad Breath
- Pain Relief
- Anxiety (fear of the dentist)
- Teeth Whitening
- And More
What Types Of Medication Do Dentists Require?
When most of us think of the dentist's office, we think of cleanings, routine cavity checks, and the occasional filling. However, dentists actually provide several different types of oral care to their patients, and these varied forms of care can require several different types of medication. As a few examples, we work with local dentists to provide...- Antibiotics
- Adhesives
- Topical Anesthetics
- Sedatives
- Plaque Removal Solutions
- Mouth Washes
- Analgesics
- Bleaching Gels
- Dry Socket Mixtures
How Do Dentists Deliver Medication To Their Patients?
Every patient is unique, and most people respond to different types of medication in different ways. We work diligently to help local dentists deliver the customized treatment each patient needs. If a patient suffers from nausea or having difficulty swallowing a pill, for example, we can make a topical gel or cream to allow the medication to absorb into the skin. If another patient is suffering from needle anxiety, we can create a topical anesthetic to allow for painless injections. Examples of the different dosage forms we can create include...
- Rapidly Dissolving Tablets
- Freezer Pops
- Gels (Oral or Topical)
- Capsules
- Troches / Sublinguals
- Mouth Rinses
- Lipstick & Lip Balms
- Lollipops
- Mouth Washes
- Oral & Topical Sprays
Don't forget that we can also add several different flavors to your dental medication, so you won't have to deal with any nasty flavors. Children and adults alike love having the option to flavor their medication!
