Dental Insurance Plus – Relief from dental pain without the drugs.
FDA approved a mouthpiece that takes needles away from dental visits.
The FDA approved the first cryo-anesthetic dental mouthpiece. The new mouthpiece called gumEase makes dental visits much easier, eliminating the need for shots. It’s big news for millions who can’t or don’t wish to use conventional hypodermically delivered anesthesia.
The easy-to-use, disposable device is inserted into the gums for a few minutes. After removal, the anesthetic effect lasts up to twenty minutes and can be repeated. Patients can apply and reuse them post-operatively without the side effects, nausea, or impairment of conventional anesthesia. In tests, the new gumEase diminishes pain by 90% in just 2 to 3 minutes on average.
