It is estimated that nearly 50% of the U.S. population, alone, experience some anxiety when visiting the dentist. Moreover, 40 million Americans are termed “dental phobics,” persons with such severe anxiety that they avoid dental care altogether. In fact, nearly 25% of all dental appointments are canceled because of this phobia.
Are you dental phobic?
When it comes to going to the dentist, we at Milestone Scientific have got you in mind. For those times when you might not look forward to that appointment, the STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System® unit and The Wand®handpiece make the visit anxiety-free and more comfortable for you and your family.
The patented, award-winning STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System unit utilizes computer-controlled local anesthesia delivery to enhance the injection process for both the dentist and the patient.
Traditional syringe techniques utilized in routine intraligamentary injections are hampered by the blind nature of the injection, the extreme pressures generated in local tissues during the procedure, and the relatively small volume of anesthesia able to be reliably delivered. These factors have resulted in reduced duration of anesthesia, unnecessary collateral anesthesia and increased pain associated with tissue damage.
The STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System unit takes the guesswork out of the administration of anesthetic by providing real-time visual and audible feedback via the CompuFlo system with DPS Dynamic Pressure Sensingtechnology. During an injection with the STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System unit, the CompuFlo system with DPS Dynamic Pressure Sensing Technology continuously monitors the exit pressure of the anesthetic in real-time during all phases of administration.
