Office medicaments and analgesics are part of any busy practice. Give your patients GC Dry Mouth Gel, from GC America, when they’re suffering from impaired saliva production. You get ten 40 gm tubes, in five different flavors! 

We’ve also got the Abreva Cold Sore Treatment Cream Spray Pump, from GlaxoSmithKline. This is the only non-prescription cold sore medicine approved by the FDA to shorten cold sore healing time. Its unique formulation uses the active ingredient docosanol to penetrate deeply, and help knock out that forming sore in as little as 2 or 3 days.
More seriously, you may have oral cancer screening to do. For this, we offer the ViziLite Plus system with TBlue (10 per package) from DenMat. This is for annual monitoring of abnormal oral cell lesions. Pre-cancerous and cancerous cells can be hard to distinguish. Clinical study has shown that ViziLite TBlue after a conventional visual examination resulted in no false negative outcomes, and a substantial reduction in false positives. You can run the ViziLite check in 2 minutes. It uses disposable technology, to eliminate cross-contamination. It’s well-tested, used by healthcare professionals like you for more than a decade now. 

Pit and fissure sealants are central to caries-prevention. Have a look at the Toothfairy BPA-Free Pit & Fissure Sealant from Septodont. Here is a low viscosity, opaque material in which polymerization is initiated upon exposure to a high-intensity blue light source. It’s indicated for the covering and sealing of pits and fissures in occlusal surfaces of posterior molars. That low viscosity ensures penetration into the dentinal tubules. It takes no time to cure, it has low shrinkage, and it’s got a high polymerization conversion. You get 2 sealant syringes and a gel etchant syringe, plus 20 sealant tips, all in one box! 

There’s also the BeautiSealant kit, from Shofu Dental. This is a tooth-colored, fluoride recharging, pit and fissure sealant with a self-etching primer that speeds treatment time by eliminating the need for phosphoric acid etching. Using an advanced, self-etching primer, BeautiSealant helps preserve healthy enamel that is easily demineralized with harsh acid-etchants, while still maintaining superior bond strength. Seeping deeply into pits and fissures, the HEMA-free primer bonds equally to enamel or dentin preparing the tooth surface for a secure and long-lasting bond. You get flawless handling characteristics, because the viscosity and the syringe design both contribute to a smooth, bubble free consistency, and reduce the common issue of overfilling. It’s highly radiopaque, so you can see what you’ve done at follow-up. It’s even full of Surface Pre-Reacted Glass (S-PRG) filler particles, pre-charged with fluoride during manufacturing, that also recharge when fluoride concentrations in the mouth are high.

Prophylaxis is impossible without prophy supplies. Check out our very popular Angie Disposable Character Prophy Angle, from Angelus Dental. These are the disposable kind. You can get them in 12-packs or 100 at a time. It’s the gentle way to work, designed with children in mind. Or there’s the autoclavable Prophy Angle Kit, with oil and wrench, from Temrex. This is a more traditional stainless steel shaft-and-gear assembly, that fits all standard handpieces.
