What is Dental Vibe

At South Temple Dental we are committed to ever increasing our ability to meet customers’ needs through customer service and advanced dental techniques. One of our newly added dental tools helps us meet these endeavors. DentalVibe® will change the way you think, or don’t think, of injection pain at South Temple Dental.

The DentalVibe® is used for only seconds prior to, during, and after the anesthetic injections to reduce and even eliminate needle pain.  DentalVibe’s groundbreaking technology and methodology is founded on the “Gate Control Theory,” first explain in 1965 by Dr’s Ronald Melzack and Patrick Wall.  The theory explains that only one sensation can pass through a neurological “gate” at a time, thus vibration will reach the brain in place of the needle-prick pain.

DentalVibe’s website explains the science in the following way, “Research shows that when two sensory stimuli are occurring at the same time i.e., vibration and injection pain, vibration reaches the brain fist and the feeling of pain is blocked.” This application of theory and technology allow you to have a more comfortable and pain-free experience at South Temple Dental.

Power of Your Smile
12 May, 2024
A smile is a universal gesture that transcends language and culture, capable of expressing a spectrum of emotions from joy and satisfaction to empathy and comfort. Beyond its communicative power, a smile carries the ability to transform one's self-perception and influence interactions with others. The link between the act of smiling and a person's confidence is profound, with cosmetic dentistry emerging as a pivotal player in enhancing this expressive feature. Not only does an attractive smile impact one's appearance, but it also bolsters mental well-being and confidence, carving out a better social and professional path for many. Understanding the psychology behind smiles and the benefits of smiling can unlock a new realm of self-assurance.
 Gum Contouring
02 May, 2024
Many people dream of having a perfect smile. Beyond straight, white teeth, the shape and health of one's gums play a crucial role in achieving this. Gum contouring is a cosmetic procedure that has gained popularity for its ability to reshape the gum line, remove excess tissue to reveal more of the teeth, or make the gum line more uniform. This procedure not only enhances the aesthetics of a smile but also contributes to oral health by removing places where bacteria can hide, potentially reducing the risk of gum diseases. It's an option worth considering for those looking to improve their smile's appearance and boost their confidence.
