Benzocaine is a type of gel that dentist's use to numb your gums before getting a shot/injection in your mouth. Dentist's use it for when you are getting the filling for a cavity. So when the injection goes in you will feel no pain at all. The gel comes in a few flavors (most often) and you will get to pick which one you want. They will usually take 1-2 drops of it and rub it on the part where the Novocaine(which is in the shot) will be injected. Therefore it will ease the pain, and you will go out smiling.
