DentalVibe - insights to a painless procedure

The greatest majority of the patients have a huge fear of the shot given by the dentist before an extraction, or before a dental filling is performed.

No more fears from now on, because good news is on the way. The DentalVibe is an innovative dentistry instrument patented in the US, which is meant to alleviate the pain felt from intra-oral injections.

Sometimes, the dentist needs to make even two or three such shots to numb a greater area within the mouth, and now thanks to this advanced technology, the fear of injections should be gone forever.

This is a rechargeable and cordless instrument, which actually delivers some micro-oscillations, or vibrations as commonly known, right to the site where the shot needs to be administered.

The instrument is designed based on the Vibra Pulse technology, which basically helps blocking the neural pain gate while the shot is administered, thus eliminating completely the feeling of pain. Instead of the dreadful pain, the patient will feel a soothing massage like vibration upon the gums, and a few seconds later the entire area is numb.

Since the pain is totally eliminated, greatest part of the dental phobia will also go away. All it takes is to “experience” once the sensation produced by the dental vibe, and next time you need to visit the dentist you will definitely be able to leave your anxiousness and fears at home.

The sensation of pain will never reach your brain, because the vibration sensation travels much faster. Blocking the pain felt from injections in such a way is truly something innovative and positive.

Quite often, patients who struggle with complex dental problems avoid the dentist exactly because they fear this initial injection. It seems it takes ages until the needle penetrates the gums, and that numbing solution enters the tissue… and these patients will sadly end up with even greater dental health complications, and go to the dentist when it is already late to save that tooth, and when that root canal treatment costs $1,000+

Now, everybody just waits until their dentist will stack up on the wonder tool which will be used in their dental practice.

Apple Invents a new Health feature for AirPods that will provide diagnosis & monitoring of Bruxism

Today the US Patent & Trademark Office published a patent application from Apple that relates to a possible future health related feature regarding the diagnosis and monitoring of bruxism using motion sensors in AirPods. Teeth grinding and jaw clenching (bruxism) are the most common parafunctional behavior manifested during sleep and awakeness. Awake bruxism has been mostly associated with emotions like anxiety, stress, frustration or tension. During sleep it causes sleep disorders and arousals. Individuals are mostly unaware of the occurrent and severity of their bruxing habits. The unawareness results in a myriad of orofacial muscle pain and dental consequences like teeth damage, wear and fractures. Commercial devices in dental practice to monitor and treat bruxism are expensive, inconvenient for frequent daily use. For instance, Polysomnography (PSG) studies that target the monitoring of sleep bruxism, require patients to sleep in a clinical setting overnight. Further, ...

Esthetic Oral Rehabilitation with Veneers

Porcelain veneers had long been considered to be only an esthetic solution. However, their range of indications has been steadily increasing, making ceramic veneers a highly viable alternative to classic, far more invasive forms of restorative treatment. Today, veneers can be used to handle esthetics (discolored teeth, fractured and worn teeth, diastemas, dental defects, etc.) and to restore the biomechanics of the dentition, as well as many other indications. Classifications of Veneer Preparations Referred to as no, minimal, or conventional preparation, veneer classifications—or lack there of—create a large gray zone of misunderstanding and miscommunication with patients and within the dental profession. Left unanswered, questions regarding tooth structure removal, finish lines and margins, and other aspects can cause confusion in practice. Flaws and inaccuracies in previously proposed preparation guidelines make those guidelines irrelevant . To dissolve uncertainty, this v...

Orthodontics for Esthetic Dental Treatment: Symbiotic Efforts for Optimal Results

Human fascination with beauty and esthetic trends is continuously evolving; moreover, public awareness and desire to improve facial appearances are at the highest level. This trend of heightened public awareness and expectation is paving a new way of dentistry toward a more comprehensive approach with esthetic principles at its core. The oral health of the patient and his or her dentition are fundamental in dental treatment. However, the final esthetic outcome should be among the first steps in treatment planning. The ideal esthetic approach in dental treatment planning often requires a multidisciplinary approach engaging various dental professionals. This process requires thorough communication among dental practitioners and a basic understanding of what each discipline can provide. FACIAL ANALYSIS Facial evaluation is an integral part of patient examination. It starts with evaluating facial symmetry, as symmetric faces are considered more beautiful than those that are n...
