The smarter start
to every injection.

It adds one step before your normal injection. Apply the cooling spray directly to the target site for about 2 seconds, then inject immediately, with no wait time. It works with the blocks and infiltrations you already perform, including sensitive sites like the greater palatine and AMSA. See how the protocol works.

A traditional gel needs an inconsistent 2 to 3 minute wait time before you can begin. DentalJect is a drug-free cooling spray that numbs the surface in about 2 seconds, so you inject right away, removing the workflow bottleneck of waiting for a gel to take effect.

Yes. DentalJect uses a rapid cooling (cryotherapy) approach to block surface pain receptors, giving you an effective, non-pharmacological first step before the local anesthetic.

Up to 40 applications per canister.* The applicator is reusable and autoclavable; full handling and sterilization steps are in the User Guide and Instructions for Use.

By removing the topical wait time, practices report saving roughly 3 to 5 minutes per injection,* which can add up to as much as 60 minutes of reclaimed chair time per day in a high-volume office. See the full clinical and practice benefits.

Experts generally advise that dental anesthesia is considered extremely safe for most adults and children (four years or older) when administered by a licensed professional. Many practices now use DentalJect — a topical anesthetic spray that numbs the area in 2 seconds — for a more comfortable, stress-free start. (Certain medical conditions, such as drug allergies, or medical histories may prevent some patients from safely receiving traditional local anesthesia.)

Standard dental numbness from local anesthesia typically lasts 2 to 4 hours, depending on the medication your dentist uses. The initial pre-treatment from a cold spray like DentalJect wears off almost immediately after the needle is removed, so you only experience the necessary, longer-lasting effects of the primary local anesthetic.

Conscious sedation relaxes you while you remain conscious — ranging from nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to IV sedation — whereas general anesthesia puts you completely to sleep. Because about 25% of adults fear injections, starting with a rapid numbing spray like DentalJect greatly reduces fear and can often provide enough comfort to avoid needing conscious sedation.

Local dental anesthesia (like lidocaine) is generally considered safe during pregnancy and is important for treating dental issues that could otherwise harm your health. Using a completely drug-free topical like DentalJect to numb the initial pinch point adds no pharmaceutical risk to you or your baby. (Certain medical conditions or histories may affect eligibility for traditional local anesthesia — talk to your dentist.)

It doesn't have to. By using DentalJect, a pre-injection anesthetic spray, your dentist can instantly cool and block your local pain receptors in 2 seconds. Patients frequently report little to no discomfort, even at the most sensitive injection sites.
