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.

Dental Veneers
13 Apr, 2024
Dental veneers are often recognized for their role in creating picture-perfect smiles across glossy magazine covers and cinematic screens. Far beyond the superficial pursuit of aesthetic excellence, veneers serve as both a remedy and a stronghold for dental integrity, melding artistry with the science of dentistry. Within the depths of their porcelain or composite layers, veneers harbor the ability to transform not only smiles but lives, through an interplay of function, form, and dental health promotion.
The Benefits of Adult Orthodontics

In recent years, more adults have been turning to orthodontic treatments to improve their smiles and oral health. While braces were once thought to be just for teenagers, advancements in dental technology and aesthetic options have made it appealing for people of all ages to straighten their teeth. This interest goes beyond just wanting a better appearance; it's also about fixing dental issues that can cause discomfort or health problems down the line. With the variety of treatment options now available, from traditional braces to clear aligners, achieving a healthier, more confident smile is more accessible than ever.
