Now you can get a new smile in less than a day



A REVOLUTIONARY technique that gives patients a new set of implanted teeth within a day, instead of months, has been successfully used by a British dental team for the first time.
The technique, developed in Sweden, can be done for less than half the cost of traditional dental implant surgery.

The method is faster and less expensive because the hardware comes "off the shelf", using standardised fittings into which the teeth are housed.

Prof Per-Ingvar Branemark,said that with the old method, implanted titanium screws were left sleeping in the bottom jaw for about three months before a new round of operations to fix and align the teeth individually. He said: "The whole process could last six months and cost £12,000 to £15,000." The new system, developed by Prof Per-Ingvar Branemark, from Gothenberg, costs about £8,500.00

The new procedure involves two ready-made plates. The first plate is screwed into the jaw and receives a second plate into which the teeth will be screwed. The screws on which the teeth are fixed go through to the first plate, making everything secure.

When the second plate is in place, impressions are taken for alignment with the upper jaw. The second plate goes to the dental technician with the impressions, who makes the teeth and fits them to the plate. The second plate, with new teeth, is then fitted to the patient's jaw.

The INJEXION™ is an injection without a needle

The concept of needle-free injection (= INJEXION™) eliminates widespread fear of injection-related pain among patients and at the same time eliminates the risks of transmitting infectious diseases like Hepatitis and HIV by contaminated needle stick accidents. In the US, about one million needle injuries are reported every year associated with considerable expenditures for replacing and treating infected persons.
Previous attempts at making needle-free jet injectors acceptable to the public failed due to high cost, awkward design and difficulty of use.

INJEX™ has overcome these issues successfully and significantly facilitates frequent administration of subcutaneous injections. This new-generation jet injector offers a safe and nearly painless mode of application, thus considerably enhancing compliance of chronic patients. By adopting these innovative technique, health care professionals can completely change the present concept of drug injection.

History of Jet Injection
1853 First needle-syringe designed by Charles G. Pravaz, France, and Alexander Wood, USA
1866 Needle-free technique developed as "Aquapuncture" by Béclard, France
1936 First jet device patented to M. Lockhart, New Jersey
1940 Development of multiple dose jet guns
1947 - 1965 Introduction of jet injection into clinical use (ca. 2,2 Mil. injections reported)
1975 - 1995 Development of first "user-friendly" needle-free injectors
1999 Development of the INJEX™-System

 

Development and
Production of INJEX™
The INJEX™ was developed and made available to the European market by RÖSCH AG Medizintechnik i.G..
Several patents have been issued for the INJEX™-system. INJEX™ has market clearance from the FDA in the USA and received European CE-approval (CE 0482) for pharmaceuticals suitable for subcutaneous jet-injection.

How does INJEX™ work?

Jet injection propels a fine stream of liquid medication under high pressure through a small orifice through the skin. All without a needle. INJEX™ is a spring-loaded needle-less hypodermic injection system.
A Reset Box will cock the integrated spring before each use. Sterile adapters enable the transfer of the desired medication from its vial into the disposable ampule for injection. A reusable transporter is available to draw up liquid drugs from cartridges (e.g.LA). Once the required amount of medication has been transferred into the ampule, it is attached to the injector.

The INJEXION is released by pressing the trigger. The high velocity jet stream pierces the skin and the drug disperses into the subcutaneous adipose tissue.The injection is accomplished, the ampule is removed and discarded without special handling procedures associated with high disposal costs.
