From the news article:
Researchers are literally taking the pain out of visits to the dentist after the successful creation and pilot trial of a needle-free device for dental anaesthesia for teeth extractions.  
 
A collaboration between the University of Otago, University of Auckland, and Auckland University of Technology, the device differs from other needle-free dental jet injectors in that it is driven by a silent motor and is specifically designed for dental work.
