Flexibility, comfort and performance in preventive care

"As the makers of trusted brands like Cavitron and Nupro, Dentsply Sirona Preventive is in a unique position to help our clinicians provide better, safer and faster preventive care by providing innovative solutions and education for the entire preventive dental procedure", says Gregory M. Sheehan, Group Vice President, Preventive Strategic Business Unit.


A complete hygiene procedure

Products such as the Cavitron Touch Ultrasonic Scaler, Cavitron Integrated Systems, and FitGrip ultrasonic scaling inserts have solidified Dentsply Sirona Preventive as the forerunner in magnetostrictive technology. Featuring a tabletop design and interactive touch screen, the Cavitron Touch ultrasonic scaling system provides clinicians with an advanced solution at their fingertips. Cavitron Integrated ultrasonic scaling systems boast a smaller footprint to allow for greater flexibility when choosing clinical products to integrate into a delivery system and are available with a number of market-leading delivery system manufacturers. For dental professionals seeking comfort and performance, FitGrip ultrasonic inserts allow hygienists' fingers to conform naturally to the grip.

The Nupro family of products offers hygiene handpieces, prophy angles and cups, and a variety of pastes and fluoride varnish to deliver optimal performance and results. Nupro White Varnish is uniquely formulated for hypersensitivity, releases high levels of fluoride in two hours, can be applied to a wet tooth surface, and sets to a clear finish. Dentsply Sirona Preventive also offers corded and cordless prophy handpieces, such as the Midwest RDH Hygienist Handpiece or the Nupro Freedom Cordless Prophy System with SmartMode technology – the latest innovation in cordless hygiene handpieces.

When it comes to adults who require localized anesthesia in periodontal pockets during scaling and/or root planing, Dentsply Sirona Preventive offers Oraqix Lidocaine and Prilocaine Periodontal Gel 2.5% / 2.5% needle-free anesthetic designed for effective pain relief.

Due to various certification and registration periods, not all products are immediately available in all countries.
