Ultradent Products recently introduced the Ultrapro™ Tx Sweep™ disposable prophy angle (DPA).
The prophy angle features a brush guard attached near the head of the angle that sweeps away saliva and prophy paste as it accumulates, reducing splatter, according to a press release. The brush guard’s flexible bristles prevent splatter before it gathers by stopping saliva and paste from collecting and roping around the outside of the cup.
The prophy angle sweeps excess saliva and paste back toward the tooth, reducing prophy waste and keeping the treatment field clean. This allows hygienists to continue working without the need to refill the cup with more paste.
Like the Ultrapro™ Tx Skini DPA, this new prophy angle features an advanced internal blade design, outer ridges for improved interproximal cleaning, optimal flare, and quiet gear design. Its ergonomic shape features a 20 percent shorter head for better access and a 25 percent slimmer neck for enhanced visibility.
