New Fluoride-Containing Desensitizer A new fluo-ride-containing desensitizer has been introduced from Parkell called Pain-Free™ F. A quick and easy way to provide long-lasting comfort to your patients with tooth hyper-sensitivity, Pain-Free F contains fluoride for excellent tubule occlu-sion. Just like Parkell’s original Pain-Free Desensitizer, you simply apply Pain-Free F to sensitive dentin to create an effective shield that blocks out external stimuli and eliminates sensitivity.
