We understand that some patients have apprehensions about visiting the dentist. In our effort to eliminate any fears you may have so you can achieve and maintain a beautiful, healthy smile, we are proud to utilize the IntraFlow™ Intraosseous Anesthesia Delivery System. This advanced technology is the latest breakthrough in pain management for the anxious dental patient.
In just one simple step, the IntraFlow™ System delivers intraosseous anesthesia that helps minimize the facial numbness and patient discomfort during and after the dental procedure. Without the use of traditional hypodermic needles, the IntraFlow™ System can deliver immediate and effective anesthesia, providing immediate relief for the patient.
What is Intraosseous Anesthesia?
Intra means "within". Osseous means "bone". Intraosseous Anesthesia (IO) anesthetizes teeth by injecting local anesthetic directly into the bone spaces around the teeth. IO is a faster and easier alternative to common anesthesia injection techniques.
The IntraFlow™ System offers patients endless benefits, including:
- Virtually pain-free treatment
- Immediate relief
- Reduced swelling
- Elimination of lingering numbness
- Reduced self-injury to cheeks, tongue and lips
- Requires only one visit
- Reduced number of follow-up visits
- More satisfactory results
- Ability to resume normal daily activities immediately following procedure
- Better scheduling flexibility
After having dental treatment using the IntraFlow™ System, more than 90 percent of patients have said they don’t want to return to the old way of receiving anesthesia for dental procedures. IntraFlow™ ultimately makes the dental experience more comfortable and relaxing for patients.
