Announcing DentalJect Topical Anesthetic Spray: Helps Reduce Injection Pain and Fear while Improving Workflows.
[Boca Raton, FL — October 19, 2026] — VCS Medical today announced the full US market introduction of DentalJect®, a drug-free topical anesthetic spray designed to significantly reduce injection pain and anxiety during dental procedures. DentalJect numbs the injection site in seconds, allowing clinicians to inject immediately—reducing chair time and increasing patient recare rates.
Fear of injections remains one of the most common barriers to dental care, affecting an estimated 25% of adults and up to 75% of children. DentalJect was developed to safely address this challenge by transforming the injection experience for both patients and clinicians.
“Injection anxiety impacts patient acceptance, staff stress, and appointment flow,” said Bill Poulson Vice President of Marketing for VCS Medical. “DentalJect introduces a No-Wait Injection Protocol and provides a fast, drug-free solution that fits seamlessly into existing workflows, helping clinicians deliver an immediate, comfortable experience without adding complexity.”
How DentalJect Works
DentalJect’s cooling topical spray works instantly, especially in difficult injection sites like the palatal area. The numbing spray blocks pain and pressure receptors in the mucosa, significantly reducing discomfort associated with needle insertion and the sting or pressure from injecting the local anesthetic. Because the numbing effect occurs in seconds, clinicians can proceed with the injection immediately—eliminating the wait time associated with traditional topical anesthetics.
Key Clinical Benefits
- Numbs in under two seconds with no waiting period between application and injection
- Precise, targeted application, even in highly sensitive or painful injections sites, such as palatal injections.
- Reduced chair time – gain up to 60 minutes of chair time per day
- Completely drug-free, with no lingering taste or residue
Benefits for Patients and Practices
DentalJect helps improve patient satisfaction and acceptance of necessary procedures. For practices, this can translate into fewer cancellations, a more efficient schedule, and more word-of-mouth referrals by offering patients a significantly more comfortable injection experience.
DentalJect combines an integrated distance guide for accurate delivery, with an adjustable rotating shield that helps protect sensitive tissue. Each canister provides up to 40 applications.
An Easy Way to Experience the Benefits
To help clinicians quickly experience the benefits of DentalJect in their own practice, VCS Medical offers the DentalJect Intro Bundle, a comprehensive introduction to the system. The kit includes everything needed to integrate DentalJect into their procedures.
Clinicians can learn more about DentalJect and the Intro Bundle, by contacting their local distributor rep or visiting www.dentalject.com.
