Pain-free Dental Injection Recently Invented

Thanks to a Dr. John Meechan, there has been a new syringe invented that is able to stop the agony of having an injection at the dentist.

A British Researcher and Senior Lecturer in Dental Sciences at Newcastle University; he has invented a syringe, which enables the anaesthetic.

"We think our idea has great potential to improve the comfort of dental injections, which will benefit all patients who need anaesthetics at the dentist," the Daily Mail quoted Dr. Meechan as saying.

"The whole idea was to make dental injections more comfortable for patients and we've done that by changing the delivery system," he said.

Dr. John Meechan also noted that, "One of the things that causes pain during an injection is the solution in the cartridge, because the solution is very acidic it causes a stinging sensation.

"The solution has to be acidic so it can be stored for long periods and still remain effective," he added.
