New palatal injection system eases discomfort

Accupal recently announced that its Accupal Comfortable Palatal Injection System has received FDA clearance and is ready to ship in the U.S.

Accupal is a cordless, compact, handheld device that preconditions the oral tissue to receive virtually pain-free palatal or other intraoral dental injections, according to a company press release.

The device was invented by Michael Zweifler, D.D.S., president of the company.

"I developed Accupal because I was tired of inflicting pain and fear on my patients, which often caused them to put off necessary treatment," he stated in the press release. "I also wanted my pediatric dentistry patients to have a positive, more comfortable experience from the very beginning and, hopefully, break the pain-fear-pain cycle that has been affecting generations of dental patients."
