Does Dental Vibe work?
Does DentalVibe really work? Yes, DentalVibe really works! Randomized controlled trials have verified that injections with DentalVibe significantly reduce pain associated with local anesthesia injections. Many patients don’t even realize that they’ve received an injection when the DentalVibe device is used.
How does the wand work in dentistry?
“The Wand” is a computer-assisted system that’s used to deliver local anesthesia to the site of a dental operation. It carefully guides dentists and dental assistants as they perform dental injections. Traditionally, anesthetic is delivered using a hypodermic needle and syringe.
What is a dental syringe?
A dental syringe is a syringe used by dentists for the injection of an anesthetic. It consists of a breech-loading syringe fitted with a sealed cartridge containing anesthetic solution. Maximum convenience, safety and economy, for use with capsules and dental needles.
How does single tooth anesthesia work?
STA is Single Tooth Anesthesia. STA is a computerized sensor-controlled local anesthetic delivery system that anesthetizes only the tooth being treated via an intraligamentary “injection” that consists of gently sliding a small probe alongside the tooth in the small crevice between the tooth and the gums.
Why do dentists use such big needles?
Another advantage of larger needles is that they have a larger diameter lumen (the hollow tunnel within them). This helps to minimize injection pressure as the anesthetic is expressed (which helps to minimize pain).
How long does inferior alveolar block last?
This provides 1-3 hours of dental pulp analgesia and 4-9 hours of soft tissue analgesia. Epinephrine prolongs duration of action through vasoconstriction at the injection site, which decreases systemic absorption.
What is inferior alveolar nerve damage?
Injury to the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) and lingual nerves (LN) during dental and oral surgery procedures is an uncommon complication, but understanding the management of the injury is important. Damage to either nerve can lead to numbness and pain of the lip, mucosa and tongue, as well as loss of taste.
