- Designed to fit Size 1 Progeny or Cygnus Ray MPS X-ray sensors
- These are single-use, disposable barriers used to prevent cross-contamination and protect valuable equipment
- The sensor sheaths are a critical component of infection control protocols in dental radiography:
Uses
- Infection Control: Primarily used as a hygienic barrier over digital X-ray sensors during intraoral imaging procedures to prevent the transfer of patient fluids and saliva onto the sensor.
- Equipment Protection: Extends the life of expensive X-ray sensors by minimizing exposure to harsh chemical disinfectants and physical damage.
- Routine Dental Exams: Used during standard patient examinations and diagnostic imaging.
Features
- Custom Fit: Designed for specific X-ray sensor models (Size 1 Progeny/Cygnus Ray MPS B-79) to ensure a snug fit, which eliminates excess plastic in the patient's mouth and ensures optimal image quality.
- Material: Made of durable, high-quality polyethylene film.
- Latex-Free: Safe for use on patients and clinicians with latex allergies.
- Packaging: Individually wrapped with an easy-peel outer layer to protect the inner sleeve from contamination during handling.
- Patient Comfort: Features soft, rounded edges for greater comfort during placement and use in the patient's mouth.
- Quantity: Typically available in boxes of 100 or cases of 500.
Benefits
- Enhanced Infection Prevention: Provides superior infection prevention by creating a reliable, single-use barrier that meets CDC guidelines for equipment barrier protection.
- Increased Productivity: The easy-to-use, individually wrapped design helps improve workflow by simplifying the process of preparing for procedures.
- Cost Savings: Reduces the need for costly and potentially damaging disinfectants, thereby extending the lifespan of expensive digital sensors.
- Patient Experience: The custom fit and soft, rounded edges provide a more comfortable patient experience
