Maintenance• A plastic barrier can be used to cover the STA• The STA can be cleaned by spraying disinfectant on a soft
towel and wiping the unit.• Every 24 cycles the STA will remind you to “Lubricate plunger
and ‘O’ ring”– Extend plunger by turning unit OFF, then Press & hold Auto
Purge/Retract button while turning STA unit ON– Lubricate plunger and “O” ring with silicone gel provided in
each box of Wand handpieces• Replace “O” ring if cracked or deteriorated• Be sure to learn about the other state-of-the-art injections
administered with the STA , such as the AMSA & P-ASA, on the web site: STAis4U.com

STA Dynamic Pressure Sensing (DPS)
• Informs the Dentist of Correct Injection Site (PDL Space) with Ascending Lights and Sounds.
• Informs the Dentist if the Needle has Left the Correct Site.• Informs the Dentist if the Needle has been Blocked.• All Feedback Information in Real Time.
![Page 22: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
STA-Intraligamentary Injection
Injection Sites• Maxillary Teeth
– Distal-buccal & Mesial-buccal Line Angles• Mandibular Teeth
– Distal-lingual & Mesial-lingual Line Angles• Buccal Bifurcation on some Lower Molars
• Always Start on Distal then Mesial
![Page 23: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
STA-Intraligamentary Injection Technique – Part 1
• Verify the unit is set to STA Mode• Break handpiece short to achieve better
access• Bend needle towards bevel about 10-15o
• Orient needle bevel towards the tooth and approach tooth at about 45o angle
• Place needle in gingival sulcus• Initiate Cruise Control after 3 seconds• Gently and slowly move the needle
apically until resistance is felt
![Page 24: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
STA-Intraligamentary Injection Technique – Part 2
• Hold needle steadily in place with minimal pressure for approximately 15 seconds
• Ascending tones and lights will indicate the needle is in the correct injection site, the periodontal ligament space
• If ascending tones and lights are not initiated after 15 seconds, move needle slightly until the correct position is attained and lights and tones are seen and heard
![Page 25: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• The pressure sensing LED lights will change from orange to yellow to green as pressure is increased and the injection site is maintained
• When the lights attain the middle to high yellow zone, there is a good probability of successful anesthesia
• When the lights attain the green zone, there is a high probability of successful anesthesia– The STA will announce “PDL” and a series of repeating
tones will sound indicating a successful needle position• If excessive pressure is exerted or the needle is
blocked, the STA will announce “Over Pressure” and the unit will stop. Restart the injection if this occurs.
STA-Intraligamentary Injection Technique – Part 3
![Page 26: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
STA-Intraligamentary InjectionTechnique
• Verify the STA mode is ON
• Place the needle passively in the gingival sulcus at about a 45o orientation to the vertical
• Keep the bevel towards the tooth
![Page 27: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
STA-Intraligamentary InjectionTechnique
• Maintain the needle’s 45o orientation
• As the flow of anesthetic is started and Cruise Control is engaged, slowly and gently move the needle apically
![Page 28: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
STA-Intraligamentary InjectionTechnique
• Continue to slowly move the needle apically until resistance is felt at the top of the PDL space
• Hold the needle in place with minimal pressure
• Wait for the STA sound and light indicators to begin
![Page 29: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
STA-Intraligamentary InjectionTechnique
INCORRECT TECHNIQUE• Wrong Needle Orientation
(Too Vertical, not 45o)• Needle too deep into the
PDL space• Excessive Pressure on
Needle
![Page 30: Sta Features Training Intralig.Inject. Erc](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559bbf371a28ab7e5d8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Technique to Eliminate Excess Anesthetic into Patient’s Mouth
• After administering the correct volume on an injection site, hit and release the foot pedal to enter the Aspiration Mode, which is six Beeps.
• After the Third Beep remove the needle from the mouth and direct the needle towards the patient’s bib, as a small amount of anesthetic will exit.

• Recommended Dosage:– ½ Cartridge per site using 2% Lidocaine 1:100,000
epinephrine– ¼ Cartridge per site using 4% Articaine 1:200,000
epinephrine• Duration: 40-60 minutes• This injection is contraindicated on a tooth with
active advanced periodontal disease• Be sure to learn about the other state-of-the-art
injections administered with the STA , such as the AMSA & P-ASA, on this web site: STAis4U.com
