Encaustic Art. Encaustic artists like Asheville painter Julia Fosson use beeswax, damar resin and pigment instead of oils or watercolors to create abstract flower paintings and abstract landscape paintings that seem to float off the surface. Encaustic paintings, unlike other works of art, donât need to be framed.
TOOTH PAIN. OTC oral anesthetics for tooth pain include products containing 5% to 20% benzocaine or 0.5% phenol (Table). Currently, there are no products marketed for pediatric teething pain that contain 0.5% phenol.
A local anesthetic (LA) is a medication that causes reversible absence of pain sensation, although other senses are often affected, as well. Also, when it is used on specific nerve pathways (local anesthetic nerve block), paralysis (loss of muscle power) also can be achieved. Clinical LAs belong to one of two classes: aminoamide and aminoester local anesthetics. Synthetic LAs are structurally related to cocaine.
