Hello, this is Gangnam Leon Dental Clinic😊

There are various reasons why people hesitate to get dental treatment,

but one of them is likely anesthesia.

For those with a fear of anesthesia,

aesthesia seems even scarier than the dental treatment itself.

However, anesthesia before dental treatment

can be said to be essential.

By using anesthesia during treatment,

it reduces the patient’s pain and burden,

and it also allows the dentist

to focus on treatment more effectively

and efficiently.

But if anesthesia itself is frightening,

it becomes difficult to visit the dentist.

So, is there a way to administer anesthesia

without pain?

Dental Anesthesia Pain

Why does the pain of dental anesthesia

feel especially frightening?

Depending on the area being anesthetized, areas with dense nerve pathways

may feel more sensitive than other areas.

In this way, oral tissue actually has many pain points and is more sensitive than other tissues,

but there is also a psychological factor

in seeing the needle moving right in front of you,

which can make the pain feel greater.

However, in fact, the pain felt during anesthesia is

mostly felt when the anesthetic solution is injected,

rather than from the needle itself.

Therefore, to reduce this discomfort,

Gangnam Leon Dental Clinic provides painless anesthesia.

A Painless Anesthesia Device That Reduces Injection Pain

If the anesthetic solution suddenly enters the tissue,

pressure increases,

causing that much discomfort and pain.

Therefore, the key to reducing the uncomfortable stiffness and pressure

is to inject it slowly

at a steady speed.

The point of painless anesthesia is

the injection speed and pressure

Gangnam Leon Dental Clinic uses the i-JECT painless anesthesia device

to control the injection speed and pressure of the anesthetic solution,

so that treatment is carried out with varying hand pressure,

minimizing the pain that can occur with general anesthesia.

Principles of the Painless Anesthesia Device

Can be set according to the anesthesia area,

such as the gums, palate, or nerves

Automatically controls the injection speed/pressure

1️⃣ Gargle Anesthesia

This is a transparent anesthetic solution in gargle form that numbs the surface of the mouth and gums for about 20 minutes with 1 to 5 minutes of gargling, reducing pain before dental treatment or local anesthetic injections.

2️⃣ Painless Anesthesia Device

Unlike a regular anesthesia syringe,

the tissue resistance at the anesthesia site is detected in real time,

the injection mode is set according to the anesthesia area,

and the anesthetic solution is injected at a steady speed

to minimize pain.

3️⃣ Conscious Sedation

(Sedation Anesthesia)

After inducing a drowsy state before treatment,

the procedure is carried out in a comfortable state as if sleeping,

minimizing pain and anxiety during treatment

and allowing efficient treatment.

Carried out only for wisdom tooth extraction / implant surgery

you can receive treatment more comfortably

from a specialist with extensive clinical experience,

with peace of mind.

Also, after the sedation treatment is finished,

you can rest sufficiently in the separately prepared recovery room

before going home.

Today, we looked at the beginning of dental treatment,

the use of a painless anesthesia device

to reduce dental anesthesia pain,

and Gangnam Leon Dental Clinic’s anesthesia system.

because of a fear of anesthesia,
