Dental experts from India working closely with their Ugandan counterparts have launched a new machine that would ease the pain dental that patients encounter during surgical operations.
Prof. Srinivas Namineni from Consed International India, whose company manufactures the Conscious Sedation Machine, which operates on a mounted gas cylinder system tailored to meet the needs of modern dental and medical practices, said the new partnership would see an improvement in the treatment of dental-related complications among patients.
While unveiling the Consed sedation machine recently on the Ugandan market in Kampala, he pointed out that research had proved that many patients having challenges of tooth decay leading to severe pain have increasingly failed to be injected before undergoing surgical operation and that the new machine would go a long way in solving the problem.
He cautioned that the surge in the dental case burden, especially among the developing countries and Africa in particular, is attributed to the poor dietetic practices where many people consume foods and beverages stuffed with sugars, which clinically degenerates into tooth decay, thus the severe pain.
He observed that at Consed International, they are dedicated to revolutionising conscious sedation practices and enhancing patient care worldwide and that as a leading provider of innovative sedation equipment and solutions, their mission is to empower healthcare professionals with the tools they need to deliver safe, comfortable, and stress-free experiences to their patients.
The outgoing president of the Uganda Dental Association, Dr. Biren Yajnik, who spearheaded the negotiations with their Indian counterparts, said it was a landmark moment that as he steps out of office, he has, with technical support from the government through the ministry of health, been able to cause the delivery of such an important machine.
He commended the ministry for jointly offering the necessary technical and regulatory advice to the Association, which is steadily moving forward.
