Typical Uses & Application Scenarios

Typically applied in dental practices during check-ups, prophylaxis paste is used with a rubber cup or a brush on a slow-speed handpiece. It gently polishes teeth, removes extrinsic stains (e.g., tea, coffee, tobacco), and prepares enamel for preventive treatments like fluoride application. It’s also suitable for cleaning prior to dental sealants or restorations.

How to Use, Fit, and Care

Dental professionals apply prophylaxis paste directly to the teeth, using rotary instruments for best results. Choose the appropriate grit for the patient’s needs and select a flavour for comfort.

• Apply paste using a prophy cup or brush

• Polish each tooth surface with gentle, circular motions

• Rinse thoroughly after polishing to remove all residue

Store unopened paste in a cool, dry environment. Dispose of any single-use containers after use.
