SOCKIT! ® ORAL HYDROGEL WOUND DRESSING
SockIt! is a hydrogel wound dressing approved by FDA for management of any and all oral wounds. SockIt! is applied directly to extraction sites, mucosal ulcers, lesions and all injuries to the mouth. After professional application in the office, it is sent home with the patient to use as often as needed for safe, continuous pain relief and wound management.
Patients report hours of post-extraction pain relief with reduced (or no) need for prescription narcotics. Oral surgeons report a significant reduction in post-operative complications. SockIt! is also ideal for immediate dentures (place directly in denture).
This unique product contains no drugs; it consists of 100% natural food (all plant) ingredients. The gel contains beta-linked acetylated mannans and a combination of essential oils. Most ingredients are at concentrations a small fraction of that found in the food source, and no ingredient exceeds the concentration of the food source.
The gel adheres to and protects injured tissues from further irritation and contamination. It also binds sodium ions at the site of injury and inhibits their entry into nerve cells, preventing initiation of the pain impulse without causing the numb sensation characteristic of anesthetics. Its natural preservative system also inhibits growth of microbial pathogens implicated in dental caries, periodontitis, candidiasis and infective endocarditis. However, SockIt! is non-toxic, is gentle to injured tissues, and is safe when swallowed. In addition, SockIt! supplies nutrients that are utilized by cells involved in the wound healing process. SockIt! gel thus promotes optimal healing as well as providing pain relief.
Several major insurance companies have reimbursed for use of SockIt! gel.
