The way dentists have been given dental injections hasn’t really changed over the last 150 years but there has been a long overdue revolution in the world of dental injections namely – the Wand.
The Wand is essentially a computer-controlled dental injection using a small handpiece instead of an injection syringe. It’s a lot smaller and actually looks more like a pen than an injection. The flow rate of the local anaesthetic is digitally controlled by a computer which means that the injection is guaranteed to be slow and steady and therefore much more comfortable than traditional injection techniques.
We treat our patients as we would treat are family friends and this means trying out the treatments ourselves! Below you can see our practice manager experiencing the Wand for herself.
The reports we have had from patients so far have been fantastic and we have been using the Wand on patients that aren’t nervous too. The feedback we’ve received is that they haven’t felt a thing!
Dental injections are probably the most common dental phobia we see at Smile Essential. It’s fantastic that we can now offer something more modern that promises to be more comfortable than traditional injection methods.
