Isolite’s Medium DV Mouthpiece
Compiled by Thais Carter
Information available at isolitesystems.com.
>>Meeting several needs in one instrument, the Isolite i2 Dryfield Illuminator simultaneously isolates maxillary and mandibular quadrants, retracts the tongue and cheek, delivers illumination, aspirates fluid and oral debris, and protects the patient’s airway.
>>According to the manufacturer, combining the above functions leads to 20% to 30% faster procedures. Already available in a variety of sizes, the new Medium DV (deep vestibule) mouthpiece allows for even more complete tongue retraction and a better fit in the patient’s mouth, as well as an expanded cheek shield to provide improved suction.
>>The new design also provides additional suction capacity within the bite block itself, assuring saliva does not pool behind the mouthpiece.
>>Isolite eliminates interruptions caused by swallowing, spitting, closing of the mouth, or especially chatty patients.
Here’s something else that can help—
Patient comfort shouldn’t end with less irritating isolation. The right delivery system is an equally integral part of the patient experience.
