At smileDentity we set high standards

Treatment at smileDentity is characterised by the combination of modern technology, precise diagnostics, gentle procedures, a holistic perspective and high aesthetic standards. The aim is not just a treatment that works, but an overall pleasant, comprehensible and high-quality treatment experience.

What is special above all is the combination: technology is not used for show, but where it actually improves diagnostics, comfort, precision and quality of treatment. This is complemented by calm advice, individually tailored holistic concepts and a noticeable focus on aesthetics and naturalness. For patients, this usually means more transparency, less uncertainty and a clearer understanding of which steps are recommended. Today, good dentistry often arises from precisely this mix – caring on a human level, technologically advanced and medically precise.

STA stands for Single Tooth Anesthesia and refers to a computer-assisted form of local anaesthesia. Unlike a classic injection, the anaesthetic can be administered in a very targeted and controlled way. The aim is to numb only the area that actually needs to be treated.

The advantage of this technique lies in its precision. Because delivery is controlled by computer, the anaesthesia is often perceived as more pleasant. In certain situations, it can also help to ensure that unnecessarily large areas do not become numb. This is particularly interesting for patients who react sensitively to injections or find the loss of control of extensive numbness unpleasant, or for patients who still have to attend a meeting or business call where long-lasting numbness would be a hindrance. It is therefore a good example of how modern technology can improve treatment comfort without losing sight of medical safety.

The great advantage of STA lies in precise and controlled anaesthesia. The anaesthetic can be delivered exactly where it is needed. As a result, many patients experience the treatment as more pleasant and easier to control than with classic procedures. In certain cases, this also means that less surrounding tissue becomes unnecessarily numb, which can feel considerably more comfortable in everyday life after the treatment. In addition, computer-assisted dosing and pressure control support an even and calm delivery. Sensitive patients in particular often benefit from this, because the sensation of the injection is less abrupt. STA thus stands for a modern, patient-friendly form of local anaesthesia that combines precision and comfort.

Yes, STA can be very well suited to anxious patients in particular. Many people do not fear the actual treatment, but above all the anaesthetic injection or the unpleasant sensation during the injection. Here, computer-assisted, controlled delivery can be a great advantage.

Because the anaesthesia is experienced as more targeted and often gentler, the tension in many patients drops noticeably. There is also the psychological effect that the treatment feels more predictable and controlled. Of course, STA does not replace empathetic communication – but in combination with a calm, comprehensible and gentle approach, it can make a real difference for anxious patients. The aim is always to strengthen safety and trust. With sensitive patients in particular, this is often just as important as the technical procedure itself.

Magnifying loupes provide strong magnification of the treatment field and thus improve precision, control and the recognition of detail. In modern dentistry in particular, very small differences often determine the quality of a restoration – for example at filling margins, in minimally invasive preparations or in the diagnosis of fine structures. Magnification allows more careful and more tooth-conserving work. At the same time, it helps to carry out treatments more reproducibly and with greater technical accuracy. For patients, this is not always immediately visible, but it is often clearly noticeable in the result: precision increases quality. Working with magnifying loupes is therefore not merely a matter of comfort for the dentist, but a quality tool that offers real added value, especially in demanding treatments.
