Current injections are notoriously painful, slow-acting, and unreliable
Dental injections are stressful for both patients and dentists, and for good reason:

We believe dental anesthetics should not cause pain when injected and be simple and easy to use.
Versus current anesthetics
Our focus is on developing dental anesthetics intended to work faster and hurt less than non-buffered anesthetics.
Versus mixing systems
Our focus is on developing a dental anesthetic, designed to be provided in a standard dental cartridge that would not require any new equipment or change in protocol:
- No new equipment—no upfront costs
