Model Smile Dentistry uses the CompuDent Wand®, a revolutionary new local anesthesia delivery system that takes the anxiety and pain out of dental anesthetic injections.
The mere sight of a dental syringe and the thought of having an injection by the dentist can make most patients wish they were someplace else. The source of discomfort for most injections, however, isn't the needle, it's the pressure created by the flow of dental anesthetic into your tissue. Our new computer-controlled injection system called The Wand® (also known as CompuDent) can greatly relieve this discomfort.
Computerized Anesthetic Delivery System
The computer inside The Wand® automatically ensures a steady flow of anesthetic regardless of tissue density, especially in the more sensitive areas such as the palate or front of the mouth. It allows the use of less anesthetic and at certain times, techniques can be used to avoid the unpleasant side effect of numbness of the tongue, face or lips.
The anesthetic is delivered at a constant pressure and volume that's typically below the threshold of pain, which allows for virtually painless injections.
Benefits of The Wand® are:
- No more standard syringe injections
- Non-threatening appearance
- Research shows it minimizes anxiety
- Comfortable & effective
