Abstract
In this study, 90% of dental patients reported being at least mildly anxious about receiving dental injections. A new precision-metered injection system has been developed that can greatly increase the probability of painless injections of local anesthetic. Surveys were administered to patients to quantify their fears of dental injections and to measure the desensitization effect of using the new injection system. According to survey results, fear levels decreased significantly when the new technology was used.Entities:
