Taking the "Sting" Out of Dental Injections
Dr. Orellana is always researching new scientific evidence based methods to make your time in the chair efficient, effective and most of all, comfortable. When he learned of the benefits of buffering anesthetic, he immediately implemented it into his patient care regimen.
What is Buffering Anesthetic?
Buffering anesthetic is the lowering of the pH level of anesthetic to make the injection process more comfortable. Dental anesthetics have an acidic pH, therefore, the sting you feel while receiving an injection is from the acidity of the anesthetic as it enters the soft tissue. Buffering anesthetic reduces this sensation by neutralizing the pH level and making the injection process more comfortable. The science shows us that reducing the pH level of anesthetic also makes it active faster and more effective.
Buffered anesthetic occurs by adding a pH lowering element to the traditional anesthetic prior to giving the injection. Bicarbonate designed specifically for this purpose, is added to the anesthetic to achieve a better, more effective and more comfortable way to introduce anesthesia into the soft tissue.
