The National Dental Centre (NDC) recently introduced a revolutionary technology and technique for giving local anaesthesia (LA) to patients before dental treatment, without the pain of conventional injections. The Wand, a computerized system, delivers local anaesthetic to patients in a way that significantly reduces the pain and discomfort of injections in the mouth. For those who risk their oral health by putting off dental visits because they find the routine injections unpleasant, this state-of-the-art technology could very well put an end to that.
