For some dental patients, going through dentistry treatment can feel overwhelming and stressful. These people may suffer from dentistry-related anxiety, needle phobias, or sensitivity prone teeth. There are a number of different causes of dental anxiety and aversion, but the good news is that there are also many dental solutions that can facilitate treatment.
Today our Elmhurst dentists are talking about one tool that we utilize to help our patients get effective, painless dental care: Syrijet.
The Basics
Syrijet is not a treatment or a formulation, rather it is a tool that numbs the patient’s dental tissues quickly and comfortably. When you see the Syrijet device, you’ll notice that it’s simply a handheld wand. Before we begin dental treatment, our dentist will take this wand and apply it to the relevant portion of your smile. Syrijet then uses a concentrated blast of air to deliver a numbing agent to your smile.
The Benefits
The first reason that so many people choose Syrijet is because it is completely needle-free. Fear of needles is very common among all kinds of dental patients. With Syrijet, you can get the pain-management care you need without ever having to see a needle.
Another reason that Syrijet is popular is become the application process is both quick and comfortable. As soon as we administer the numbing agent, you’ll start to feel the results. After we administer Syrijet, we can apply any additional relaxation or sedation treatment necessary, and you won’t have to feel the pinch of a needle.
Even if it has been a long time since you’ve been to the dentist, our dental team is here to help you get the dental care you need in an efficient and comfortable way. Give our Elmhurst dentists a call to learn more and to schedule a personal consultation with our team!
