To enable the team to prevent chairside cross contamination the Sani-Tip System from Dentsply has been developed for ease of use within all dental surgeries.
The main features include no-suck-back of contaminated aerosols and oral fluids into the air which can occur when the syringe buttons are released, it provides separate air and water channels and as a result, is able to guarantee dry air. There are free Sani-Shields in every pack giving added protection for the air and water syringe at no extra cost.
