Debacterol
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Debacterol (R) Canker Sore Pain Relief solution is a liquid topical agent that is used in the treatment of ulcerating oral mucosal lesions and minor oral abrasions.
[edit] Make up
DEBACTEROL is composed mostly of a anethetic, 20% sulphonated phenolics (Phenol) which is the active ingredient in sore throat spray and 30% sulfuric acid (H2S04).
[edit] How it works
For the ulcerating mucosal lesion to heal, the factors causing the injury must first be controlled at the ulcer site. Then, any necrotic tissue debris in the ulcer bed must be removed so that healthy new cells are able to migrate into the damaged area and proliferate. In the normal course of healing the immune system is relied upon to perform and promote all of these activities. A limiting factor in the rate of ulcer healing is the capacity of the immune system of an individual to prevent further damage and to clear the way for repair cells to infiltrate and multiply.
Debacterol works by cauterizing the exposed sensory nerves in the open sore area. This method deadens the nerves, and also allows the area to scab over. While not a complete cure, Debacterol takes away the major pain associated with the ulceration allowing the patient to eat, speak and continue day to day normal activities that would otherwise have been impaired if the discomfort was still present.
You clean the ulcer, dip a cue-tip into the acid solution and rub the ulcer including the ridge surrounding it for no more than 6 or 7 seconds then rinse thouroughly with water or solution of baking soda and water. As can be imagined this a quite painful 6 of 7 seconds even with the anasthetic, however afterwards the pain is immediately and permenently relieved.
