(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 02, 2015 ) Titusville, FL -- Electronic Dental Anesthesia (EDA) is the use of electrical stimulation to minimize the pain of dental procedures, such as teeth extraction and restoration. Instead of applying topical anesthesia and injecting local anesthesia, the dentist would use transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) machines to help the patients manage the pain. Syrtenty® small TENS unit replacement pads is universally compatible, and is known to have top notch conductivity for better pain management.
With the help of Syrtenty® small TENS unit replacement pads that could fit perfectly on the cheeks and jaws of small children, dental procedures should be smoother than usual. By using Syrtenty® TENS unit pads, EDA could continue gaining the cooperation of pediatric dental patients.
Children between ages 4 and 6 develop some form of needle phobia or trypanophobia. This prevents them for cooperating during dental visits because they know that they might be given anesthetic shots. This situation is not helping both the patients and the dentists because 24% of children between 2 and 5 have tooth decay, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). If left untreated, all of their teeth would be gone when they reach the age of 65.
In a study conducted by Lodaya et al., they found out that children are more cooperative during dental procedures if they know that they will not be given numbing shots. EDA's effectiveness is rooted in the fact that the use of TENS machines with TENS unit pads "is non-invasive, safe and well accepted by the patients. Furthermore, the study discovered that EDA is a "substantial alternative" to applying conventional local anesthesia.
The study involved 63 children who underwent three kinds of dental procedures: extraction (22), pulpectomy (19), and stainless steel crown restoration (23). Most patients from the extraction and stainless steel crown restoration group noted 0-3 degree of pain (no pain to mild pain). However, ratings 0-3 (no to mild pain), 4-7 (moderate pain), and 8-10 (severe pain) were almost evenly distributed among the patients.
Nevertheless, Lodaya et al. still conclude that EDA eliminated pain and fear of dental injection, post-operative inconveniences such as lip biting, side effects of injectable anesthesia, and the possibility of infection at the injection site. EDA with Syrtenty® TENS unit pads would be the best option for pediatric dental procedures.
