Are you scared of the dentist? If so, you’re not the only one! Dental phobia is one of the most common phobias among British adults. Fortunately, at Liverpool Dental Spa, we understand that many of our patients feel anxious about having dental treatment and we have some amazing techniques and treatments on offer to make the experience much less daunting. If you have a fear of needles, for example, we are delighted to offer pain-free injections with The Wand right here in the heart of Liverpool.
What is The Wand and how can it wave away dental phobia?
The Wand is a computerised device, which delivers painless injections. Many people feel anxious about having dental treatment because they are scared of needles and injections. Often, these fears stem from a negative or painful experience in the past. It is common for injections to be painful as a result of a sudden burst of fluid. With The Wand, we can ensure that the flow of liquid through the needle is steady, as the speed is controlled by the computer. This means that you can enjoy peace of mind that you won’t feel a thing.
The Wand looks very similar to a standard pen and it is attached to a small computer. The Wand is a lot less daunting visually than a traditional injection, which is comforting and reassuring for patients with a phobia of needles, and it is also guaranteed to provide painless injections. The computer regulates the flow of the liquid through the needle, so there is no chance of a sudden splurge, which can cause pain.
Who can benefit from The Wand?
The Wand is ideally suited to patients, both young and old, who have a fear of injections and needles. Although a needle is still used, The Wand looks just like a pen and the computer prevents any risk of pain. If you’ve been struggling to summon up the courage to pick up the phone and make an appointment, The Wand can put an end to your fears. Call us today to find out more and we’ll be happy to tell you everything you need about this magical treatment.
