"Fear and anxiety often inhibit patients from seeking dental care. Audiovisual, or A/V, distraction techniques have been shown to reduce patient anxiety and pain during dental procedures" American Dental Association
Since their introduction in 1996, i-glasses have established themselves as the premier patient distraction and entertainment system within the dental industry. The reason for this is simple; i-glasses are the only video entertainment device that can both immerse and focus the patient's attention away from the procedures being performed. The patented optical design and high resolution micro-display technology combine to deliver a giant screen image with superb clarity. Thousands of dentists, hygienists, doctors and nurses are using our head mounted video display systems. For the ultimate in Patient Distraction and Video Entertainment try the i-glasses VIDEO.

"I just tried out the i-glasses in my (dental) office, and all the patients love it. I am an avid DVD collector so my patients get to pick out the latest flick while I clean their teeth."
The American Dental Association recently performed a study on the beneficial effects of i-glasses on dental patients. The results of their study were as follows: "Subjects reported less anxiety and discomfort when using the A/V eyeglass system than when they did not. Most subjects preferred to use the A/V equipment rather than receive traditional treatment. The clinician experienced no significant technical interference during the use of the A/V device. The use of the A/V eyeglasses led to decreased treatment time in the first one-half of the procedure. The system appeared to lead to some decreases in the physiological parameters over the course of treatment, with the highest systolic blood pressure occurring after the condition with no use of A/V eyeglasses."
