What is Dental Wand Anesthesia?
Rather than using traditional shots and needles, your dentist can use a wand, a pen-like handheld device, to quickly numb your tooth. The pen is attached to a small computer with a cartridge of anesthetic on top. When it's time for your dentist to numb the area, they'll use a foot pedal to turn the machine on while holding the pen on your tooth.
Unlike shots or needles, a dental wand has pressure feedback which will slow down when it meets resistance, alerting the dentist to change the wand's position - a common cause of dental pain during injections is a dentist pushing down too hard while administering local anesthetic with a traditional needle.
Benefits of Dental Wand Anesthesia
- Designed for patient comfort
- Non-threatening, clean, pen-like appearance
- Anesthetic is automatically delivered at a consistent flow rate
- The machine alerts the dentist if there is any resistance during the procedure so they can change the position of the wand

A dentist can numb your mouth without needles, thanks to dental wand anesthesia. The wand is a pen-like handheld device connected to a computer that allows precise administration of an anesthetic to a specific area.
Single tooth anesthesia involves using a dental wand to administer a local anesthetic to one tooth. The wand allows the anesthetic to only affect the tooth and then, once the procedure is over, it wears off.
The dental wand allows for painless anesthetic application because it doesn't require the use of needles or injections.
The wand helps ease dental anxiety because the tool doesn't look like a needle, which is often a significant source of fear for patients. The ease and quickness of applying the anesthetic also helps ease dental anxitey because it numbs the treatment area so patients can't feel the work being done.
