Abstract

Introduction and aim. The purpose of this study was to compare different Computerized-Controlled Local Anesthetic Delivery (CCLAD) systems to one another in addition to the conventional syringe.

Material and method. The CCLAD systems chosen for this study are the Quicksleeper, SleeperOne, and The Wand. These are discussed in categorical objectives, including the following: duration of anesthesia, analgesic effect, locality; anxiolytic effect; advantages and disadvantages; comfort and safety of use; limitations.

Analysis of the literature. The research found that many factors influence the effectiveness of dental injections, and the CCLAD systems are designed to reduce the ones that cause negative experiences. The injection systems are unique in their descriptions but show many similarities.

Conclusion. The research concluded that each device has its advantages and disadvantages and that its efficiency depends on outlying factors, independent of the injection system used.
