STA Wand Anaesthesia in Alkimos

smiling patient talking with doctorAt Alkimos Beach Dental Centre we provide STA Wand Anaesthesia. This service is ideal for people who have previously had bad experiences with injections.

What is STA Wand Anaesthesia?

The Wand is essentially a computer-controlled dental injection. The flow rate of the local anaesthetic is controlled by a computer. This means that the injection is guaranteed to be slow and steady and therefore comfortable.

How It Works

Many people who have had a bad experience with injections think that needles sting because the skin is pierced, but this is usually not so. Mostly, the stinging sensation is caused by the anaesthetic being fired in too quickly. Obviously, it is possible for the dentist to control the speed with a standard syringe, but the idea of the Wand is to take out the “human error.” This can be very reassuring for people with previous bad experiences. A lot of people with needle phobia describe the Wand as their “Magic Wand”!
