Oraqix: The needle-free pain relief system for scaling and root planing
Oraqix is the only FDA-approved, needle free-anesthetic for scaling and root planing.
Since it’s introduction in 2004, Oraqix has changed the way pain relief is administered and has opened the door for full-mouth scaling and root planing (SRP) procedures. Regardless of whether you do consecutive quadrant scaling or full-mouth periodontal procedures, Oraqix is a great option for delivering profound, needle-free anesthesia for SRP when anesthesia is required.
