IntraFlow - Product Overview

Achieving profound anesthesia is now easier than ever with the newly enhanced IntraFlow Disposables. The IntraFlow Anesthesia Delivery System from Pro-Dex, Inc is described as the latest technology in pain management for the dental professional and a major breakthrough in fear management for the anxious dental patient. It is designed to deliver reliable, profound pulpal anesthesia in seconds.

Following treatment with IntraFlow, patients can resume normal activities, smile for post-operative assessments, eat, drink and talk normally � without having to wait for the anesthesia to �wear off�. Patients report being appreciative of the comfortable nature of the injection and speed of the procedure. The IntraFlow System uses patented intraosseous injection technology that allows true, one-step operation to deliver anesthetic directly into the cancellous bone spaces. Pain relief and profound pulpal anesthesia are achieved in approximately one minute, saving valuable chair time and allowing practitioners to work in multiple quadrants during a single visit. IntraFlow is designed to be used as a primary or supplemental means of delivering anesthetic and is ideal for most general dental procedures, including endodontic therapy, oral surgery, cosmetic and restorative procedures, and implantology.

What is Intraosseous Anesthesia?

Intra means “within”
Osseous means “bone”
The technique of Intraosseous Anesthesia (IO) causes teeth to be anesthetized by injecting local anesthetic directly into the cancellous bone spaces around the teeth. It is an easier, faster alternative to common anesthesia injection techniques like intraligamentary, infiltration and nerve block. The goal is to deposit anesthetic into the cancellous bone distal to the root of the target tooth or teeth.
