A NEW DENTAL INJECTION SYRINGE (NDIS)

Objectives: Administration of local anesthetic is a preliminary step in dental treatments. The aim of this study was design of a mechanical based dental injection syringe to administer controlled volumes of local anesthetic solution.

Methods: NDIS administers ¼ (0.45ml) of a cartridge volume at each step of injection.

Results: NDIS reduces the required injection force to 1/4^th of conventional syringes. Lower injection rate and volume allow smoother administration of local anesthetics.

Conclusion: Patient’s pain is reduced since the balloon effect at site of injection is lowered. NDIS eliminates any possibility of the cartridge bursting during injection, which may happen when administrating conventional forceful injections. NDIS is autoclavable. It is registered as a new innovation in dentistry in Iranian National Patent Organization.

Keywords: New Dental Injection Syringe, Anesthetics, Injection.
