Dental needle irrigation involves the gentle and professional cleansing of root canals,
wounds, and periodontal pockets. It is performed using irrigation probes, which are specialized needles with side openings and rounded tips. These probes allow for effective irrigation without the risk of apex perforation or tissue damage. Dentists use them during various procedures, including periodontal and dental surgery, interdental irrigation, and medication placement in root canals or periodontal pockets. The probes are typically used alongside a hand-operated syringe and an appropriate irrigation solution1.
In simpler terms, dental needle irrigation helps keep those hard-to-reach areas in your mouth clean and healthy! 🦷
A dental mask is an essential piece of personal protective equipment (PPE) worn by dental professionals during various procedure
protecting both the dental professional and the patient from the transmission of infectious agents. Here are some key points about dental masks:
Types of Dental Masks:
Earloop Masks: These are the most common type of dental masks. They have loops that go over the ears and are designed for use during most dental procedures.
Tie-On Masks: Similar to earloop masks, but they are tied behind the head instead of looped over the ears.
Respirator Masks: These provide higher filtration efficiency and are used in specific situations where additional protection is needed1.
CDC Recommendations: The CDC recommends that dental professionals wear a surgical mask with the following features:
>95% bacterial filtration efficiency: This ensures effective filtration of microorganisms.
Protection from droplet spatter: Dental procedures can generate droplets that may contain bloodborne pathogens or infectious microorganisms. The mask acts as a shield against such spatter2.
Remember, dental masks play a crucial role in maintaining a safe and hygienic environment during dental treatments! 🦷😷
smooth dental needles are designed for accuracy and comfort in dental treatments.
An ultra-sharp needle minimizes patient discomfort during the injection of liquid anesthetics, while the needle’s high-break resistance allows it to be bent for access to hard to reach places.
A marking on the hub indicates the bevel position for an even more precise administration.
1- High-break resistant needle
2- Ultra-sharp, three-beveled siliconized needle to minimize patient discomfort during injection
3- Not made with latex, DEHP or PVC
4- Ultra-sharp three-beveled needle
5- Available in 27 G and 30 G
6- Made for patient comfort
7- It was cut by laser, not CNC, which gives it high precision and easy injection
Brush bond
The fibers of the UltraBrush bristle brush applicator are chemical resistant to hold up to the harshest dental materials. The applicator head bends close to the tip and guarantees a precise application while providing improved control at the same time. Thanks to the Stay-Put Bending“ Technology, the applicator head remains in the desired angle without rebound.
