Plak-Vac
Vista Dental's Plak-Vac is the only device on the market specifically designed to remove biofilm from the patient's tongue during prophylaxis, while disposing of the build-up through the high volume-suction. Since plaque build-up on the tongue is a major cause of halitosis and root caries, the Plak-Vac should be a welcome addition to any operatory. |

The Platypus
Paradise Dental Technologies, Inc., introduces the Platypus, a disposable orthodontic flossing device. The wider, flatter end known as the spatula area slides between the brackets and under the wire so floss can effectively reach the gum line.

FLIX Interdental Sticks
FLIX is a multi-functional oral care product that massages gum tissue, removes plaque in between the teeth, and reduces odor-causing bacteria. As the stick encounters moisture, the ultra-fine woven mesh floss expands and releases a cavity-fighting fluoride treatment. FLIX is available in three varieties: Original, Mint Sensation, or FLIX Zero (no mint, no fluoride). |
