Pain free injection technique

Yes, believe it or not, it is possible to give a painless dental injection.

We know that most of you don't love coming to see us, but we want to make your dental visits as simple as possible.

Sadly, many clinicians forget what it's like to be on the receiving side of an injection, and therefore don't take special care to make it as painless as possible.

Here at the Village Dental Centre we know it's important to always use a topical anaesthetic first, this bubble-gum flavored gel is placed onto the gum for a few minutes, this has the effect of numbing the gum before the injection is given.

A lot of dentist's don't bother to do this, but we know that it really makes all the difference, and only takes a few extra minutes.

We also make sure that the anaesthetic is warmed to body temperature and given very slowly, this makes certain that the injection is as painless as possible.

It may sound unbelievable, but in the majority of cases the patient doesn't need to feel anything when having a dental injection - you can feel free to just lie back, relax, and imagine the water lapping at your toes...

We'll even provide the shades.
