Preventech

According to a Polk-Lepson Research Group study, 4 out of 5 surveyed hygienists prefer Pivot NL DPA with a nonlatex cup over other nonlatex angle brands. Pivot NL angle cups are designed to be softer, more elastic, and more like natural rubber. Better elasticity allows the cup to reach deeper interproximally and splay into the sulcus easier for more complete cleaning and polishing. Because they stay more concentric, they spin truer, reducing splatter. For more information, call (800) 474-8681 or visit preventech.com.
