VibraJect blocks pain from injections based on the Gate Control Theory. The battery operated motor attaches to a conventional syringe causing the needle to vibrate. The high vibration of the needle stimulates the nerve endings and blocks the transmission of pain feelings to the brain.

Kit:
VibraJect is available with or without rechargeable batteries. The model VibraJect uses 2, standard 1.5volt batteries. The model, VibraJect R3, uses rechargeable 1.5 volt batteries that are packaged in a sleeve of three.
Both models use the same autoclavable clip brackets and motor assembly with the exception of the control knob. The VibraJect R3 uses a different control knob.
The VibraJect R3 is offered with or without the recharging unit. Purchasers of multiple VibraJect R3 kits may not want to purchase a recharging unit for each kit.
A Retrofit Kit is available to convert the VibraJect model to a VibraJect R3 model with rechargeable batteries.
VibraJect has the CE mark and is manufactured under ISO 9001.

Usage:
VibraJect requires no special technique. The use of a topical anesthetic is not necessary when using VibraJect. The clinician attaches the clip bracket and motor to a conventional syringe and turns the motor on by twisting the knob on top of the motor. A normal injection technique is used. The clip bracket can be left attached to the syringe during autoclaving. The motor is easily removed from the clip bracket prior to autoclaving and can be wiped off with alcohol or other surface disinfectants.
Why use VibraJect:
Injections are the #1 fear of dental patients and it has been reported that 55% of all dental emergencies occur during administration of anesthesia. VibraJect is effective for all types of injections including intraligamental , palatal and blocks. VibraJect is an easy and affordable way to simplify injections and improve the patient's dental experience.
There is a segment of patients who tolerate pain better than others. Those with higher pain tolerance may not perceive a significant difference with or without VibraJect. VibraJect is for those who experience pain. Since it is impossible to determine a patient's pain thresh-hold prior to giving an injection, it is recommended to use with all patients as there is no disadvantage in using the Vibraject System.
Competitive Products:
Only 2 competitive products exist; The Wand and The Comfort Control Syringe. Both of these products are technique sensitive and slow, requiring a longer time to administer injections. These products also are much more expensive and require the purchase of special, disposable cartridge sheaths by the dentist. Both competitive products require electricity requiring space for control units and electrical outlets.
