Year of the Zooby

YEAR OF THE ZOOBY
The evolution of Zoobys started last November when Francesca the Flamingo, Chase the Cheetah, Zoe the Zebra, Talon the Tiger, and Penelope the Penguin became the newest additions to the long-standing Denticator team of preventive products. These five, fun characters were chosen as the signature designs of kid-friendly, disposable prophy angles Denticator released at the 2009 Greater New York Meeting.

Customers will find that Zooby angles have the same quality they have always found from Denticator, including a latex-free, four-webbed cup and straight body. The Zooby animal-themed line of disposable angles quickly began establishing a reputation of its own as the popular, fun choice for all types of patients and professionals. Zooby angles are versatile enough to fit any slow-speed handpiece for maximum convenience.

Once Penelope, Zoe, and the rest of the pack stampeded their way through the dental community, more additions were made to the developing kingdom. This past June, six unique flavors of Zooby gluten-free prophy paste (Happy Hippo Cake™, Turtle Melon™, Gator Gum™, Spearmint Safari™, Chocolate Chow™, and Growlin’ GRRAPE™) were introduced to the market. This prophy paste is flavored with xylitol, contains 1.23% fluoride, and has a hygienist-preferred formula for limited splatter and optimal stain removal. Each flavor is available in fine, medium, and coarse grits, with a free animal gripper included in each bag – representing one of the new Zooby characters – Allie the Alligator, Holly the Hippo, or Toby the Turtle.

As the success of Zoobys continued to grow, the number of products grew as well, with two additions launched this month! During the ADA Annual Session, two new fluoride products joined the Zooby family – 5% Sodium Fluoride Varnish, and 1.23% APF Fluoride Foam.

Zooby Varnish features a user- and patient-friendly formula that delivers the highest concentration of fluoride available. The smooth, clump-free consistency allows for an even and efficient application, while eliminating leftover residue as it dries on clear for enhanced patient approval. The delicious Turtle Melon™ (watermelon) flavor is gluten-free and pleasantly sweetened with sucralose and xylitol.

Zooby Foam features an optimal, dense consistency that easily fills fluoride trays and reduced patient gagging. Available in a 4.4oz aerosol can, the six delicious, gluten-free flavors match the six different Zooby prophy pastes, so patients can mix and match each new flavor with every new visit.
