TAC 20% Topical Anesthetic--(Lidocaine 20%, Tetracaine 4%, Phenylephrine 2%) 20 gm jar ~ approximately $29. A compounding pharmacy will mix it for you. I used it instead of Oraquix and found it to be wonderful. You can find a compounding pharmacy in your area by clicking here.

According to the TAC information sheets, the product should be used prior to injection, scaling, root planing, frenectomies, laser and soft tissue procedures, and more. It is also available in a green, more viscous gel. Onset will occur within 1 minute and continue to increase its effectiveness within the following 3minutes. Peak effect will usually last 25 to 30 minutes. Time varies with individual patients. Do not use if patient sensitive to local anesthetics, allergy to PABA, hair dyes, sulfonamides. Extreme caution in elderly, patients with hyperthyroidism, bradycardia, myocardial disease or severe arteriosclerosis.

There are several products you can use to dispense it. I used a disposable endo syringe. Also: Micro Capillary Tips REF/UP 1120 Tip Length: 5 mm (green). This product can be purchased for approximately 20 cents per tip. Schein, Ultradent, or Vista also can be used. The company address is as follows:

Ultradent Products, Inc.
South Jordan, Utah
1-800-552-5512
Suck up about a stopper amount of red TAC into the syringe, attach a tip, and it's ready to go. One syringe usually does 2 quads SRP. Use only a few drops per site.

 

What happens to your body when you drink a coke?

In The First 10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. (100% of your recommended daily intake.) You don't immediately vomit from the overwhelming sweetness because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor allowing you to keep it down.

20 minutes: Your blood sugar spikes, causing an insulin burst. Your liver responds to this by turning any sugar it can get its hands on into fat. (There's plenty of that at this particular moment).

40 minutes: Caffeine absorption is complete. Your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, as a response your livers dumps more sugar into your bloodstream. The adenosine receptors in your brain are now blocked preventing drowsiness.

45 minutes: Your body ups your dopamine production stimulating the pleasure centers of your brain. This is physically the same way heroin works, by the way.

60 minutes: The phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium and zinc in your lower intestine, providing a further boost in metabolism. This is compounded by high doses of sugar and artificial sweeteners also increasing the urinary excretion of calcium.

60 Minutes: The caffeine's diuretic properties come into play, [causing you the need to urinate]. It is now assured that you'll evacuate the bonded calcium, magnesium and zinc that was headed to your bones as well as sodium, electrolyte and water.

>60 minutes: As the rave inside of you dies down you'll start to have a sugar crash. You may become irritable and/or sluggish. You've also now, literally, [excreted] all the water that was in the Coke, but not before infusing it with valuable nutrients your body could have used for things like even having the ability to hydrate your system or build strong bones and teeth.

Stick to water, real juice from fresh squeezed fruit, and tea without sweetener. However, the Coke itself is not the enemy here. It’s the dynamic combo of massive sugar doses combined with caffeine and phosphoric acid, which are found in almost all sodas.
