I was using Baby Orajel gel and had great results with it, but when I went to the store to buy more, they were out of it, so I had to buy Baby Orajel Liquid Teething Medicine instead.

Regular Baby Orajel comes in a small tube, and you can squeeze out the product onto your finger or a cotton swab and then apply to the baby's gum area. Beside having to wipe off your finger afterwards, it's not messy at all. Well with Baby Orajel Liquid Teething Medicine, the product comes in a small bottle with a hole at the top. You squeeze the bottle and liquid comes out. The liquid is so thin, it drips off of your finger and makes a mess. If you try to use a cotton swab, the liquid gets absorbed into the cotton because it is so thin and runny.

Once you do get the product to the troubled area, it does work, but the process of getting there is harder than it needs to be. I don't know why they even invented the liquid version, because the regular gel is just fine.

The Scoop!

This product was just too messy for me to purchase again. I wouldn't recommend it, but I do recommend the regular Baby Orajel gel.

Yes! that's the name. I know it when I hear it, but when I was looking for it I just asked them at the pharmacy. LOL They say that the memory is the first thing to go.

Are you thinking of Hyland's? I use to sell it when I worked at Whole Foods Market. No, I haven't tried it. I'm not sure why either. They also make a teething gel that I just remembered about! Thanks for the suggestion.

Have you considered the all natural tablets that dissolve. You have to help them hold it on their teeth but at least it doesn't sting your fingers. I can't remember name just look for it in store.

I tried to use the regular Orajel once and it had so much alcohol content I couldn't stand it. So my doctor suggested I use the grape flavored Orajel Gel and that was wonderful. I wouldn't think you could have as much control with the liquid.

If someone comes into the situation that I experienced, where the store is out of regular Baby Orajel gel, I would still buy this crappy product though :)
