Revolutionising Dental Comfort: An Introduction to the WAND Anaesthesia System
Thursday, January 18th, 2024
Let’s face it – the mere thought of dental injections can send shivers down our spines. But don’t worry!
In this blog, we’re taking you on a journey to demystify the process and introduce you to a game-changer that’s redefining the way we experience dental anaesthesia.
At Brite Dental, we’re always on the lookout for ways to make your dental experience as comfortable as possible.
Today, we’re thrilled to shed light on a groundbreaking innovation that’s changing the game in pain-free dentistry: the WAND Anaesthesia System.
Picture this: no more anxiety, no more anticipatory dread. The WAND Anaesthesia System is not just a tool; it’s a promise of a more relaxed, pain-free dental experience. And who doesn’t want that?
Let’s explore the science behind WAND, how it works its magic, and discover how this innovative technology is turning traditional dental injections on their head. Say goodbye to the stigma of discomfort, and let’s embrace a new era of dental care together.
Read on and transform the way you think about dental visits!
Dental injections – a phrase that can make us step back, even the bravest among us. Traditional anaesthetic methods have long been the standard. And while effective, they often come with a set of limitations that contribute to the anxiety many feel in the dental chair.
The discomfort associated with the needle and the slow onset of numbness are not exactly highlights of the dental experience. For many, the very idea of that needle can overshadow the necessity of the procedure itself.
Say goodbye to the drawbacks of traditional methods because innovation is here to change the narrative. Enter the WAND Anaesthesia System – a revolutionary tool that’s rewriting the rules of pain-free dentistry.
The WAND Single Tooth Anaesthesia (STA) System is a marvel in dental technology designed with your comfort in mind. This innovative tool discreetly numbs just one tooth before proceeding with the treatment instead of numbing several teeth and their surrounding areas.
And since The WAND is computer-controlled, our dentists can regulate the flow of anaesthetic, which results in your comfortable and pain-free numbing experience. Gone are the days when you’ll have to endure one large stinging injection.
Moreover, this technology has a state-of-the-art design that provides ease and comfort to patients compared to the intimidating presence of syringes.
The wand looks like a pen with a small needle at the tip where the anaesthesia is delivered. This is attached to a handpiece where the flow can be regulated.
With its game-changing technique and ergonomic design, smooth and pain-free dental anaesthesia is now possible.
By using The WAND System, our clinic will deliver the medicine at the right rate for the tissue density of the area to provide patients with the pain relief they need immediately.
If you’re ready to transform your dental experience with an anaesthetic procedure that allows you to go about your day without worrying about how you look, eat, or drink, visit Brite Dental today.
Our dentists are well versed in using The WAND System and can now administer numbing injections in a smooth, pain-free way.
Here, we’ll shine a spotlight on the remarkable benefits that make WAND a game-changer in the dental care industry. No more bracing for discomfort or anxiety – WAND is here to redefine your expectations of pain-free dentistry.
As we go through the marvels of the WAND STA System, it’s not just patients who reap the rewards. Dentists also experience a transformative shift in the way they deliver care.
Let’s uncover the advantages that make WAND a great ally for dental professionals, enhancing their practice and patient satisfaction.
At Brite Dental, we understand that dental anxiety and discomfort are significant hurdles. WAND is not just a solution; it’s a testament to our commitment to your well-being.
From reduced pain to targeted anaesthesia and a gentler approach, WAND reflects our dedication to providing a dental experience that’s as stress-free as it is effective.
Your smile deserves the best care, and with WAND, we’re revolutionising the way you experience dentistry. Don’t let fear hold you back – register with Brite Dental today. Your journey to pain-free, patient-centred dental care starts here.

Childsmile Scheme Saves Scotland £5M A Year
Tuesday, July 7th, 2015
Recent data has shown that the Scottish Childsmile programme saves nearly £5 million a year in treatments costs. The statement was made by Scotland’s public health minister Maureen Watt. She explained that the savings have been made due to a decrease in the amount of fillings, general anaesthetics and extractions required.
Childsmile is a national programme that was created in Scotland to improve the oral health of children and improve access to dental services. The scheme was created in 2008 and works in partnership with various schools, nurseries and dental practices.
The Childmsile programme has not only helped save millions of pounds but it has also helped improve the dental health of children in Scotland. Since the scheme was introduced, Scotland has seen a decrease in the number of primary one children with ‘obvious decay experience’ from 46% to 32%. 92% of Scottish children are also now registered to a NHS dentist. The results of the scheme have shown what a focus on prevention and education can achieve.
Brite Dental is happy to be a part of Scotland’s Childsmile programme. As part of the Childsmile scheme, children receive free toothbrushes, toothpaste and two fluoride varnish applications per year. Children attending nursery and those who attend a primary school in a deprived area are also offered daily supervised brushing. A key focus of the programme is to prevent the development of dental decay which is important to avoid the need for root canal treatment. Brite Dental are proud to help children learn about their dental health and ways to improve it.
Brite Dental is an NHS and cosmetic dentistry dental practice. To find out more, or to register, contact us today.

Just last week Paisley Town Hall was filled with people interested in fashion and local charity support. A lady called Gillian Matthew has organized a tremendous fashion show where a number of local Paisley boutique shops presented their clothes, accessories and bags. The collection was styled by a famous designer John Amabile and demonstrated by the local people from Paisley and the Brite Dental Paisley team.
The entire event was organized in support of the Accord Hospice charity and managed to raise an amazing amount of £15,000.
The audience was able to view a number of gorgeous wedding dresses, wedding guest and mother of the bride wear, luxurious lingerie collection and a beautiful kid clothing collection. All of the clothes and accessories were demonstrated on the massive catwalk that went though the entire Paisley Hall.
The audience was entertained by a huge choir called ‘RockUs’ who were singing popular pop songs such as Madonna’s ‘Like a Prayer’, Kool & The Gang ‘Celebration’ and more. The audience was able to refresh themselves with a glass of Prosecco and buy some of the local designer accessories during a break.
Brite Dental was one of the main sponsors of the event. We are often supporting local charity activities and events.
