Dentistry

Dentistry is an ideal field for compounded medications. There are many situations where traditional medicines and treatments might not be enough.

Whether it is an eight-year-old who needs a cavity filled or an eighty-year-old who needs to be fit for dentures, each patient may benefit from custom compounds made especially for them. 

Working closely with a compounding pharmacist, a dental practitioner can prescribe medications for:

  • Pain relief
  • Procedural anxiety
  • Topical anesthetics
  • Nausea
  • Dry socket treatments
  • Gag reflex suppression
  • Mucositis caused by radiation or chemotherapy
  • Gum disease
  • Oral thrush
  • Oral ulcers
  • Canker sores and more!

Dental dosage forms include:
  • Transdermal gels
  • Lip balms
  • Mouth rinses
  • Lollipops
  • Oral-adhesive pastes
  • Troches
  • Mucosal bandages (powder puffers)
