The 0.1% paste base contains gelatin, pectin and carboxymethylcellulose in Plastibase, which adheres to wet oral mucosa for up to 6 hours. Once in contact with the lesion, triamcinolone suppresses cytokine release, reduces leukocyte infiltration, and eases inflammatory pain \u2014 accelerating healing of aphthous ulcers and controlling chronic inflammatory mucosal disease.<\/p>\n<h2>Indicaties<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (canker sores)<\/strong> \u2014 first-line topical therapy. Reduces pain within 24\u201348 h; speeds resolution by 2\u20133 days.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oral lichen planus (erosive and atrophic)<\/strong> \u2014 first-line maintenance. Reduces erythema, erosion and pain.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Traumatic ulcers<\/strong> from braces, dentures or biting \u2014 when the trauma source is removed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pemphigoid and pemphigus oral lesions<\/strong> \u2014 adjunct to systemic therapy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inflammatory complications of denture wear<\/strong> \u2014 when poor fit is corrected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Hoe aan te vragen<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Wash hands. Dry the lesion with a clean tissue or cotton bud (paste does not stick to a wet mucosa).<\/li>\n<li>Press a small dab (about pea-size) onto the lesion using a clean fingertip \u2014 do NOT rub it in.<\/li>\n<li>The paste forms a smooth adhesive film that lasts several hours.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes after application; avoid alcohol-containing mouthwash for the duration.<\/li>\n<li>Apply 2\u20133 times daily after meals and at bedtime for up to 7\u201314 days. If lesions persist beyond 2 weeks, see a clinician \u2014 persistent oral ulcers may need biopsy.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div style=\"background:#fff3f3;border-left:4px solid #d9534f;padding:14px 18px;margin:18px 0;border-radius:4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;font-size:1.05em;\">Do NOT use if<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The lesion is suspected to be infectious \u2014 herpetic ulcer (vesicles on a red base), oral candidiasis (creamy white plaques wiping off to leave a red surface), oral tuberculosis<\/li>\n<li>The patient is allergic to corticosteroids or any paste excipient<\/li>\n<li>The ulcer has been present for more than 3 weeks without diagnosis \u2014 needs biopsy to exclude oral cancer or specific infection<\/li>\n<li>There is suspected oral varicella-zoster reactivation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Bijwerkingen<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Vaak voorkomend:<\/strong> mild local burning at first application; transient unpleasant taste; occasional drying of the area.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Minder vaak voorkomend:<\/strong> oral candidiasis (thrush) with prolonged use \u2014 present as creamy white plaques.

The ulcer surface re-epithelialises 2\u20133 days faster than no treatment. Apply within 24 hours of the ulcer starting for best effect.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I use it for a cold sore on my lip?<\/h3>\n<p>No. Cold sores (herpes simplex labialis) are viral and topical steroids can WORSEN them by suppressing the local immune response. Use aciclovir cream for cold sores. Tess paste is for non-infectious inflammatory oral mucosal lesions only.<\/p>\n<h3>How is this different from Bonjela or Orajel?<\/h3>\n<p>Bonjela contains choline salicylate (mild anti-inflammatory) and Orajel contains benzocaine (local anaesthetic). Both reduce pain temporarily but do not modify inflammation. Triamcinolone paste is a true topical corticosteroid \u2014 it suppresses the underlying inflammation and accelerates healing, not just numbness.<\/p>\n<h3>Can children use Tess Oral Paste?<\/h3>\n<p>Over age 6 with adult supervision, short courses (5\u20137 days) for severe aphthous ulcers. Younger children \u2014 see a paediatrician first to confirm diagnosis.<\/p>\n<h3>How long can I use it?<\/h3>\n<p>Maximum 7\u201314 days continuous use without medical review. Oral lichen planus may need longer maintenance under specialist supervision (oral medicine clinic). Chronic use risks oral candidiasis and mucosal atrophy.<\/p>\n<h3>Will it cause oral thrush?<\/h3>\n<p>Possible with prolonged use, especially in diabetes, immunosuppression or denture wearers. White creamy patches that wipe off to leave a red surface = thrush. Stop the paste, treat with topical antifungal (clotrimazole troches or nystatin), then resume only if needed.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I eat after applying?<\/h3>\n<p>Wait 30 minutes. The paste needs time to form an adhesive film. Eat soft, non-acidic foods initially; avoid alcohol-containing mouthwash for the duration.<\/p>\n<h3>My ulcer has lasted more than 2 weeks \u2014 should I keep using it?<\/h3>\n<p>No \u2014 see a clinician. Any oral ulcer lasting more than 3 weeks needs biopsy to exclude oral cancer, oral tuberculosis, syphilis or autoimmune blistering disease. Topical steroid does not cure these conditions.<\/p>\n<h3>Is het veilig tijdens de zwangerschap?<\/h3>\n<p>Topical corticosteroid paste applied to small areas for 5\u20137 days is considered low-risk in pregnancy. Discuss with your obstetrician for chronic oral lichen planus management.<\/p>\n<h3>How does it compare to oral steroid mouthwash (e.g. dexamethasone rinse)?<\/h3>\n<p>Paste is best for localised single ulcers \u2014 it stays in place. Steroid mouthwash (dexamethasone elixir 0.5 mg\/5 ml swish-and-spit four times daily) is preferred for widespread oral lichen planus, multiple ulcers and posterior pharynx involvement that paste cannot reach.<\/p>\n<h2>Other Topical Corticosteroid &#038; Oral Care Products<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/nl\/anti-inflammatory-autoimmune-care\/\">All Anti-Inflammatory &amp; Autoimmune Treatments<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/nl\/betnesol-tab\/\">Betnesol Tab (betamethasone) \u2014 systemic corticosteroid<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/nl\/medrol\/\">Medrol (methylprednisolone) \u2014 systemic corticosteroid<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/nl\/clocip\/\">Clocip (clotrimazole 1%) \u2014 for confirmed oral candidiasis<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/nl\/tenovate-cream\/\">Tenovate (clobetasol) \u2014 high-potency topical steroid (skin only)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!-- medsbase-related-alts-v1 --><\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#fff3f3;border-left:4px solid #d9534f;padding:14px 18px;margin:24px 0 0 0;border-radius:4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0;font-size:1.05em;\">Medische Disclaimer<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin:0;\">Deze informatie is uitsluitend bedoeld voor educatieve doeleinden en is geen vervanging voor medisch advies.
