What is Single Tooth Anesthesia technology?

The source of discomfort for most injections, isn’t the needle – it’s the flow of anesthetic. The Wand™ allows for aconsistant and optimal flow rate, making the injection process more comfortable.

The STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System® combines patented, state-of-the-art computer-controlled injection technology that achieves more precise injections, improved drug delivery and materially enhanced patient comfort levels. The unit additionally provides a flow of anesthetic directly ahead of the needle creating a "pathway of anesthesia" to further decrease the uncomfortable feeling generally associated with a dental injection.

For a typical procedure, the Wand STA system numbs faster and more accurately. Uncomfortable numbness seems to disappear faster.  A busy professional can now have a cavity filled at 10:00 a.m. and attend a business meeting at noon without the facial numbing that can cause slurred speech and drooling. Limited doses of anesthesia also reduce liver toxicity which is an added benefit of using the Wand STA.
