A description of the Karbul needle will be presented in this article. Therapeutic procedures or surgical intervention are inevitably accompanied by pain, which is why many patients are very afraid to see dentists.
Currently, dentistry has reached heights not only in the field of prosthetics and treatment. Now, carpul anesthesia is used for pain relief, which allows increasing its effectiveness and eliminating the possibility of error during the selection of the required dosage, since the ratio of the necessary drugs is determined by the manufacturer during manufacture.
Where are used?
Carpool needles are required for syringes. They are used for injection for local anesthesia. This procedure is used to reduce the pain of the patient.
How does carpul anesthesia work? With the help of such a needle and a special syringe, the doctor directly injects the medicine directly from the carpule, that is, the glass cartridge. This method is very effective. It is also worth noting that it takes very little time, and this quality was appreciated by patients who feel fear of medical intervention.
What are the main characteristics of carpul needles?
Firstly, they are very thin. Due to the small size of the piercing area, the unpleasant sensations from the injection are minimized. These needles have a threaded plastic adapter. Thanks to them, the needle is attached to the syringe. It is worth noting that the needles are advanced forward on both sides of the plastic sleeve. This design is not accidental. Firstly, in such a needle, the medicine is recruited from the capsule, and secondly, the medicine is injected into the tissues of the human body. There is a red mark on the cut of such a needle. Thanks to her, the doctor understands how to insert the syringe. In a number of medical procedures, this is significant. Syringes and needles are very convenient to use. The doctor needs to spend much less effort, the time of his actions is reduced. Thanks to this, the quality of medical services is greatly improved.
Needle Selection Features: Walkthrough
Karpulny dental needles are sharp, flexible and durable. They are intended for single use, reduce the risk of infection in the patient's body. When choosing a needle, you should pay attention to a number of some of their specific properties:
- The composition of the needle stands out a plastic cone and a metal part.
- The long end, which is intended for the introduction of the drug into the tissue, ends with a cut.
- The needle should have a short end designed to pierce and clog the carpula.
It must be remembered that the severity of the cut of the tip depends on how painless the injection will be.
How to distinguish an original from a fake?
To distinguish original products from fakes or products of little-known firms, you need to know the following:
- Well-known companies produce such needles on the cone of which there is a red mark on the outside (from the cut side on the tip), which makes the process of anesthesia easier.
- Branded needles for carpul anesthesia have a thread inside the plastic cone designed to screw it onto the syringe.
- The shape of the cone or its size is determined by the particular variety.
- Original needles are packed in cases of one hundred pieces. During decontamination, a paper seal is installed or cut, which is used during the sealing of the package.
- The label must indicate the type, number, length, country of manufacture of the needles, company, production date and storage time.
Thanks to the use of high-quality needles, a long and truly effective local anesthesia is provided, which is safe for human health and does not cause any pathologies after medical manipulations. Where is the dental karpulnaya needle used?
Karpulny injector
Karpula is essentially a bottle that is hermetically sealed and closed at one end with a metal cap, and with a rubber cap at the other. Through this method, anesthesia is carried out using a puncture and injection of the drug into the projection area of the upper lip.
This method got its name due to the fact that a special syringe is used, which can be used repeatedly. If it is made of plastic, it can be both disposable and reusable. The sizes and description of carpul needles interest many.
The injector includes the following parts:
- housing;
- plunger;
- stock;
- holder;
- tip;
- ring.
The syringe holder is necessary in order to press it with the middle and index fingers.
If an anesthetic is accidentally injected into the vessel, then the toxic effect of the drug increases several times, which is especially observed when there is adrenaline in the suspension and the patient has a toxic reaction. To avoid this situation, before you inject anesthetic, you need to conduct an aspiration test. To do this, the piston reaches for itself. In the event that the test is positive, you need to pull the needle and re-advance it forward.
The plunger is a very important component that is used to perform an aspiration test. A plunger is inserted into the retention cavity on the piston, then remaining in the needle position, which is tightly installed thanks to it.
The following types of plungers exist:
- arrow-shaped;
- "anchor";
- "corkscrew".
An aspiration test is carried out with greater ease and accuracy if the “corkscrew” or “anchor” type is used, since they more firmly fix the carpula piston. The arrow-shaped type is much less used, since it is necessary in order to partially pierce the carpul piston, but such an operation is quite rare.
Carpule needles
Through injection needles, the drug is introduced into the tissue in the form of a solution. Karbulnaya differs from a regular needle in that it is bilateral. When the doctor puts it on the syringe, it thus ensures the opening of the sealed karpula with the anesthetic inside the injector.
Modern needles have significant advantages. One of them is that products are made of high quality steel, which guarantees its high strength. When choosing a needle, you should first of all pay attention to the material from which the products are made. This point is very important, as other needles may bend or break. Below we consider the size of the needle of the carpul.
Needles are distinguished by the following features:
- during their production, a special sharpening technique is used, due to which soreness at the time of introduction into the gum tissue is significantly reduced, and the mucous membrane is not injured;
- the plastic part acts as a guarantee of a snug fit, and in this case the possibility of slipping away from the syringe during the procedure is excluded;
- all needles are sterilized first, and the cap is ergonomically shaped;
- in the manufacturing process only proven materials are used;
- production is carried out through a multi-level quality control system;
- such a needle has a twice reduced thickness compared to conventional injection needles (for standard ones - 0.3, for carpul ones - 0.6).
Storage Features
Carpool needles should be stored in a dark and dry place, trying to avoid getting a humid environment. Always make sure that the integrity of the package is not violated. In no case is it permitted to use needles that have expired. They are kept closed before the procedure thanks to the plastic cap.
Below is a list of the most popular needles that are recommended for use.
