The idea of this can\ncause people to forgo their appointments and put off important dental work.\nFortunately, dental technology has advanced in such a way that patients no\nlonger need to fear. With the help of The Wand\u2122, you\u2019ll feel nothing at all,\nthus, alleviating your concerns and allowing you to feel more at ease during\nyour appointment. Read on to learn more about this new piece of technology and\nits many benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is The Wand\u2122?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Wand is a pen-like device that is designed to make\nreceiving dental anesthetic easier than ever before. Considered to be a\ncomputer-assisted anesthetic administration device, your dentist applies a\ntopical sedative before using The Wand to administer the appropriate amount of\nanesthetic at the correct speed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is often slow and gradual, yet smooth, so you feel\nvirtually nothing at all. Your dentist will be able to adjust the flow accordingly\nso the numbing solution will go only to the necessary area, leaving the rest of\nyour face and soft tissues feeling completely normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are Its Benefits?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If, for instance, you were in need of a dental filling, The\nWand would be an extremely beneficial tool to use. Here\u2019s why: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to receive a filling, your dentist will need to\nclean out your natural tooth, removing any decay and debris. This process could\nbe very uncomfortable and unpleasant without an anesthetic. To ensure you are\ncomfortable throughout the process, your dentist can use The Wand to quickly\nand gently numb the particular tooth, leaving you feeling no pain or discomfort\nthroughout the procedure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will give your dentist a chance to swiftly clean out\nyour weakened tooth and fill it with composite resin to ensure further\nreinfection does not occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from the less invasive and more comfortable numbing\nprocess, you will also be able to recover more quickly, as only a small amount\nof anesthetic will be administered into your system. And there\u2019s no need to\nworry about feeling numb all over, as your lips, tongue, and face will feel\ncompletely normal even while your dentist is filling your tooth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With The Wand, you no longer need to worry about large,\nscary needles. Instead, you can relax knowing that your dental work will leave\nyou feeling no pain or discomfort from start-to-finish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<br><\/strong>Dr. Stephen Dean completed his bachelor\u2019s degree at the University of Georgia before going on to pursue a doctoral degree at the Medical University of South Carolina.
