A method, system, device and an artificial tooth is disclosed for simulating both pain and anesthesia in a model of jaws. The tooth is equipped with sensors and connected to a data processing unit, memory unit and audiovisual display unit. The system is for teaching and practicing in the field of dentistry according to which removing artificial tooth or artificial bone substances by a dental drill, generates signals of pseudo pain with different intensities. Signals are fed to the data processing unit which simulates perception of the simulated pain and accordingly to said audio-visual display unit which simulates reaction to the different intensities of generated pseudo pain signals by playing different sounds which are stored in said memory unit. Furthermore, the system is able to simulate anesthesia by generating block signals as a result of applying different anesthetic techniques by means of a dental syringe connected to the system.

According to one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a dental syringe includes a barrel extending along a longitudinal axis and including an interior space and a longitudinal window formed in a side wall of the barrel for receiving a cartridge that contains medication. A flexible flange member is formed at a proximal end of the barrel with one end of the flexible flange member extending into an opening at the proximal end that forms an entrance into the interior space of the barrel. The dental syringe has a plunger received in and axially displaceable within the interior space, with the plunger having a plurality of spaced grooves provided on an outer surface thereof. The flange is configured to selectively engage the grooves while generating an indicating signal corresponding to a predetermined dosage of medication dispensed from the cartridge during axial displacement of the plunger as the flange engages successive grooves.

A dental syringe (10) has a needle (11) affixed to a carpule holder (12), which carpule holder (12) is affixed to a power drive unit (13). A harpoon (20) is provided to affix the drive unit to the carpule plunger (32). The harpoon (20) is made of stainless steel or other hard, corrosion resistant, sterilizable, material. Harpoon 20 has a unique barb geometry and hardened, knife-like, edges (21). The syringe (10) may operate to divide the delivery of anesthesia into two phases. According to the method, during the first about 10 seconds of the injection, anesthetic is delivered at an extremely slow rate to maximize patient comfort. The injection rate then automatically increases to the preprogrammed rate associated with the injection type selected.
