Dentalject at Willden Family Dental

At Willden Family Dental, we believe that fear should never stand between you and a healthy smile.

That is why we are proud to be among the first dental practices in South Jordan to offer Dentalject, a pre-injection anesthetic spray that numbs the target area in under two seconds so the injection can begin immediately. No waiting, no prolonged anticipation, and no numb throat after your appointment. If dental anxiety has kept you away, our sedation and comfort care options are another great resource for getting you the care you need with less stress.

What Is Dentalject?

Dentalject is a precision cooling spray that delivers a targeted burst of coolant gas to the injection site, blocking pain receptors before the needle is ever introduced. The entire process takes one to two seconds, and because there is no waiting period between application and injection, patients spend less time sitting in the chair dreading what comes next. It works especially well in sensitive areas like the palate where traditional topicals often fall short.

Who Can Benefit?

Research shows that roughly 25% of adults and 75% of children report a fear of injections. That fear leads to skipped appointments and delayed treatment, which can turn small dental problems into larger, more costly ones. Dentalject is a meaningful step forward for patients of all ages, including those with:

• A history of painful injection experiences
• Strong needle sensitivity or dental phobia
• Children who become distressed during dental visits
• Adults who have avoided care for years due to fear

With Dentalject, the injection phase of your appointment passes quickly and comfortably, so you can focus on the results rather than the process.
