Water & Air Spray
Working with a red contra-angle produces a lot of aerosol. Sufficient cooling is important to avoid thermal damages to the tooth.
Avoiding aerosols by all means possible has become a major aim in the dental industry in the past months. Facing this new challenge has motivated us to develop a solution to create a safer environment for you, your team and your patients. Our goal with this new solution is to remove as many of your concerns regarding aerosols as possible so that you can focus on what matters most, treating your patients.
An easy comparison (below) clearly shows the outcome of our simple and effective solution: A clear difference in the spray mists. By blocking the spray air, the spray is more ringed, therefore, the risk of contaminated aerosol dispersion is reduced. When the treatment is performed properly, a sufficient cooling function with water is still provided (as required by ISO 14457:2017-10), thus ensuring that the teeth will not be damaged as a result of the cooling air no longer being accessible. Adjustment of working speed and pressure is highly recommended.

Spray air contributes significantly to spray mist in dental instruments. Blocking the spray air leads to more ringed spray mist, therefore reducing the risk of contaminated aerosol dispersion. Teeth will not be damaged without cooling air, as a sufficient cooling function by water is still given when proper treatment is performed.
