The Dental Wand
We understand that you may feel anxious about having dental treatment and will do all we can to make sure your appointments are as comfortable as possible. We want you to receive all the treatment you need to keep your oral health in great condition and one way we can help is by using the Dental Wand – an anaesthetic delivery system that makes treatment more bearable and you more likely to get the dental attention you need.
This alternative to the traditional syringe features a computerised device that delivers a steady flow of anaesthetic. It makes the numbing process much more comfortable and as it looks like a pen, it is far less frightening for those with an aversion to needles.
As well as delivering the anaesthetic at a constant pace, the Dental Wand numbs more rapidly than a syringe and sensation is quickly recovered following a procedure. This makes it perfect, not only for nervous patients and children, but also for busy professionals who are keen to get on with their lives after treatment. Your dentist might choose to numb just one tooth so there will be no loss of feeling in the tongue, cheek or lips, and you can get back to your normal routine – free to eat, drink and smile.
The Dental Wand is so effective, you may not even realise you’ve had an injection – in fact after using the wand, some patients say: ‘When are you going to do it?’
You can expect to be so happy following treatment that you will want to tell all your friends and family about your great experience at the dentist!
