Drilling system to perforate cortical bone in order to administer local anesthesia in spongiosa; application in dentistry.
Device Story
RA-5 ANESTO is a dental handpiece designed for intraosseous anesthesia delivery. Device attaches to standard dental micro motors (air or electric) via ISO 3964 coupling; transmits rotational force to an attached needle to perforate cortical bone. Handpiece accommodates standard 1.7ml or 1.8ml anesthetic cartridges (ISO 11499). Following bone perforation, clinician uses a manual dosage lever to inject anesthetic directly into the spongiosa. Used by dentists in clinical settings to facilitate local anesthesia. Benefits include improved ease of operation and user-friendliness compared to previous integrated air-driven systems.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Handpiece with ISO 3964 coupling for dental micro motor attachment. Accommodates ISO 11499 anesthetic cartridges (1.7/1.8ml). Manual dosage lever for injection. Mechanical device; no software or electronic sensing.
Indications for Use
Indicated for dental patients requiring local anesthesia administration via perforation of cortical bone into the spongiosa.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A spring-powered jet injector is a syringe device intended to administer a local anesthetic. The syringe is powered by a spring mechanism which provides the pressure to force the anesthetic out of the syringe.

| Device Description | RA-5 "ANESTO" is a handpiece, which, on the one hand, is<br>provided with a coupling system according to ISO 3964. This<br>coupling allows the handpiece's attachment onto a corresponding<br>dental motor, for transmitting the motor's rotational movement to<br>the attached intraosseous injection needle, intended to perforate<br>cortical bone.<br>On the other hand, it was designed for being equipped with an<br>anesthetic cartridge acc. ISO 11499, volume 1.7 or 1.8ml. After<br>having perforated the bone, this cartridge's anesthesia can be<br>administered locally in the spongiosa by means of a manually-<br>operated dosage lever.<br>"ANESTO's" application is intended in dentistry. |
| Intended Use: | Drilling system to perforate cortical bone in order to administer<br>local anesthesia in spongiosa; application in dentistry. |
| Technological<br>Characteristics | The Handpiece RA-5 "ANESTO", represents a revised and<br>improved version of the predicate device. The main technical<br>characteristics have been retained unchanged.<br>New: "ANESTO" is designed to be attached on and driven by a<br>dental micro motor (air or electric motor), instead by the integrated<br>air-supplied driving system of the predicate device. Furthermore,<br>the handpiece's shape and ease of operation have been<br>improved for more user-friendliness. |
| Comparison of the<br>device to the predicate<br>device | The intended use, technological characteristics, performance<br>parameter and material are very similar to the predicate device.<br>The new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate<br>devices. |
| Performance Testing | Bench testing results demonstrate substantially equivalence |
| Clinical Testing | Clinical data were not needed for this new product. |
