Enjoy comfortable anesthetic application with dental wand injections

The Single Tooth Anesthetic System delivers just the right amount of anesthetic

during a procedure to ensure comfort from start to finish, without traditional needles.

What is the STA Single Tooth Anesthetic System?

The dental wand system is a treatment that offers anesthetic without using a conventional injection needle. Many patients have a fear of needles and may be uncomfortable getting an injection to numb the treatment area before their procedure. Instead, the STA system uses a wand-like handpiece that is controlled by a computer and delivers a slow and steady amount of anesthetic where it is needed. This means a more comfortable experience, even during the numbing process!

What does the dental wand look like?

Instead of looking like a large syringe, the dental wand looks more like a pen. It has an extremely small and discreet needle at the tip. With this device, the dentist can administer exactly the right amount of anesthetic at the right times, allowing patient comfort from start to finish. The dentist will administer anesthetic as needed throughout the treatment to create a positive experience in the dental chair for all patients.

Why choose the STA wand?

Drs. Tae Kwon and Rahul Tase are excited to offer this and other state-of-the-art solutions that are integrated into their quality dental practice. There are many benefits to this anesthesia system, including injection-free anesthetic administration for the best in comfort. No more over injection of anesthetics that leaves a patient numb for the remainder of the day. Instead, the right anesthetic amount is applied for necessary treatments.
