The digital needle, also known as digital anesthesia, replaces traditional dental needles and is one of the best technologies for people with needle or doctor phobias. In digital anesthesia, the anesthetic is applied considering the tissue pressure of the person. This process causes almost no pain. Digital anesthesia is advantageous because it can be adjusted according to the patient's pain threshold. The process begins by numbing the gum, and after the anesthetic is applied, a digital anesthesia device is used to carry out the procedure.
Why Don’t You Feel Pain with Digital Anesthesia?
One of the biggest advantages of digital anesthesia is that there is no sensitivity or pain after the procedure. The fluid injected into the gum by the digital anesthesia device is applied slowly and specifically for the patient. Structurally, the tip of the digital needle is much thinner than traditional dental needles. This thinness plays a role in reducing the pain you feel to a minimum. Digital anesthesia is also highly effective and painless for children's dental treatments.
What Does Digital Anesthesia Offer You?
The digital anesthesia method, applied by the specialists in our clinic, is a very easy and fast process. It provides great comfort for patients who fear needles or have significant anxiety. Tissue sensitivity is taken into account during the procedure, and the pain that might arise from the process is significantly reduced. The local anesthesia applied to numb the gums is very painless. Not only does it ease the local anesthesia part, but it also simplifies the treatment and shortens the treatment time. By using developing technology, it reduces patients’ negative attitudes toward dental treatments. It can be applied to any patient, causes no harm to the body, and the anesthetic used is the same as in normal anesthesia.
Advantages of Digital Anesthesia for Children
Digital anesthesia is frequently used in children, making procedures like root canal treatments, fillings, and extractions much more comfortable, improving the child's experience in the dental chair. Children who can easily tolerate the numbing process have better treatment compliance, and the likelihood of developing dental phobia is reduced.
How Do We Apply Digital Anesthesia?
In our clinic, we use a digital anesthesia device to apply an anesthetic solution to the gum to ensure numbness. The needle of this device is very fine and single-use, making it hygienic and safe. The procedure is performed with minimal pain, taking into account the patient's sensitivity and tissue. The amount of anesthetic applied is also tailored to the individual patient.
