Thank you for the thumbs up about this product! If there is a way for other dental practices to use this in their offices prior to FDA approval as you have, I hope that you can come back here to post contact information for interested dentists.

The Onset system buffers your local anesthetic, Lidocaine, raising the ph ideally to 7.5 resulting in a painless injection for the patient, eliminating the "bee sting". It also increasing the concentration of "active" anesthetic by approximately 6000 %, resulting in instantaneous anesthesia. No waiting time. We inject, painlessly, and start in on our procedure immediately. We save on average 10-15 minutes per procedure! The patients love it and enjoy less time in the dental chair. Can't say enough about how it is having such a positive impact on our practice.

It reduces the acidity of the shot and helps the active ingredients take effect much quicker, am I right? It sounds wonderful if that's what it is, though I've always had lidocaine rubbed on my gums first and then the injection slowly started up and I've never had a problem with it. Most of the time I wasn't even aware that they had started the injection, and I've had to have a full root canal and four impacted wisdom teeth pulled. Still, if it helps people get the dental surgery they need, I'm all for it.
