- Disposable protective sleeves shield size #1 digital intraoral phosphor storage plates (PSP) from fluid damage and contamination during dental X-ray
Uses
- Pediatric and Anterior Radiography:
- Houses size #1 phosphor plates, which are ideally proportioned for smaller children's mouths or narrow adult incisor/canine X-rays
- Plate Fluid Shielding:
- Creates a physical, moisture-resistant layer that isolates the sensitive digital imaging plate from saliva, blood, and bacteria
- Universal Imaging Compliance:
- Serves as a standard consumable across all major dental brands of size #1 digital phosphor plates
Features
- Extended Tab Design:
- Built with a prominent quick-pull tab on the edge, letting dental assistants cleanly rip open the pouch and drop the sterile inner plate directly into the reader without risk of touch contamination
- Peel-and-Stick Adhesive Seal:
- Features an adhesive strip that locks the plate inside, ensuring no fluids seep through to damage the internal electronics
- Universal Component Sizing:
- Engineered to fit seamlessly with size #1 plates from all leading equipment brands, including ScanX (Air Techniques), Gendex, Apixia, and Midmark
- Ultra-Soft Edge Seams:
- Constructed with smooth, rounded plastic borders to prevent the envelope from digging into sensitive oral tissue or cutting the gums
- Bulk Supply Format:
- Sold in 300-count boxes, offering high-volume clinics a steady supply of consumables
Benefits
- Reduced Pediatric Discomfort:
- The smaller size #1 frame paired with soft edges alleviates the severe gag reflex common in children and sensitive adult patients
- Streamlined Infection Control:
- The swift peel-and-drop mechanism minimizes the time spent handling contaminated sleeves, accelerating chairside cleanup
- Sensor Longevity and Cost Savings:
- Protects the delicate phosphor coating from micro-scratches, finger oils, and fluid degradation, extending the operational life of expensive imaging sensors
- Consolidated Inventory Management:
- Eliminates the need to stock multiple brand-specific protective sleeves, allowing the office to use one universal model for all size #1 setups
