42 DENTAL DRILL TOOL US15687853 2017-08-28 US20180055598A1 2018-03-01 James B. Wolf
A system and method for mitigating pain associated with dentistry provides a removal apparatus for removing a portion of a tooth. A desiccation apparatus flows a desiccated gas to the portion of the tooth to desiccate dentinal tubules in a region surrounding the portion of the tooth, generally preventing nerve cells within the tooth from transmitting pain signals associated with the removal. The removal apparatus has a drill head with a body having an axial opening configured to accept a dental burr. An annular passage exists between the dental burr and the body within the axial opening. A chamber in the body is in fluid communication with the axial opening, where a channel is fluidly coupled to an external port and to a source of the desiccated gas to flow the desiccated gas therethrough and expose a drilling region of the dental burr to the desiccated gas to mitigate pain.

44 Low-splash reducing implement for dental applications US13986557 2013-05-14 US09055989B2 2015-06-16 Arthur Kitchings Weathers; T. Wilfred Pye
The invention is a low-splash dental fluid distribution implement with the ability to evenly wear down tooth decay, diseased tissue, or undesired dentin in oral applications with live patients. The directed multi-beams of pressurized fluid are a combined plurality of individual beams paired in such a manner that the reflected fluid bursts are inwardly directed against each other. This canceling effect prevents damage to the oral tissues of the patient's mouth by curtailing outward bound bursts of fluid arising from the initial directed impact. Also, the outer edges of the strike zone receive a comparable force as that which hits the center.
45 Method and apparatus for reducing pain and patient discomfort at an injection site US12924089 2010-09-21 US20120070799A1 2012-03-22 Mark Metcalf
An apparatus and a method for reducing pain and the discomfort experienced by a patient as a consequence of a needle stick during the administration of an injection. The pain-reducing apparatus includes a handle and a disposable fork detachably connected thereto. The fork has a pair of outstretched fingers that are separated from one another by a gap at which the injection site is located. Vibrations applied to the fork from the handle are transmitted from the fingers of the fork to the patient's tissue or skin surrounding the injection site. The vibrations desensitize the patient's tissue/skin during the administration of the injection.

56 Disposable anesthesia delivery system with shortened outer sleeve and inner hollow drill US09799334 2001-03-05 US06547561B2 2003-04-15 Moshe Meller; Michael Feldman
An intraosseous delivery apparatus having a drilling member and a sleeve member. The drilling member includes a drill housing, a connecting portion for establishing a connection to a conventional dental drilling apparatus, and a drill extending from the drill housing. The sleeve member includes a sleeve housing, and a hollow sleeve extending from the sleeve housing. The sleeve housing is adapted to be removably engaged with the drill housing such that the drill is inserted into the hollow sleeve. The drill has a length such that when the drill is inserted into the hollow sleeve, a portion of the drill extends beyond the hollow sleeve. As a result, when the drill is used to drill a hole in bone, the drill is inserted deeper into the hole than the hollow sleeve. The hollow sleeve is adapted to be left inserted in the bone when the drill is removed therefrom. The “in place” hollow sleeve is also adapted to receive a syringe needle through which anesthesia may be directly introduced into the bone via an exposed bottom portion of the drilled hole as well as via exposed side-wall portions of the drilled hole. The drill is preferably smooth, and may also be hollow so that debris generated during drilling enters the interior of the drill. In this case, when the hollow drill is removed from the hollow sleeve, the debris within the hollow drill may also be removed. Still further, the drill may be made of a titanium alloy whose flexibility, wearability and cutting ability is greater than that of conventional hardened stainless steel.
