One question- do you get the lidocaine by prescription, or do you use the toothache drops OTC?
Thanks again, and welcome to the forum!

Hello, I see you haven't received a response so I am just throwing my 2 cents out there for you. Lidocaine is available both otc and by prescription. It's 2% and I think 4% is the maximum otc strength you can get. (don't quote me on that) which makes me think that its otc. However, she said that her TMD/TMJ team started her on it so....safest bet is to speak to your doctor.
