Description
Richmond 100% Cotton Nonwoven Sponges combine the absorbency of real cotton with a lint free nonwoven surface, so nothing is left behind in the mouth or on instruments. The soft, textured face is gentle on tissue and gingiva while the 4-ply cotton body pulls in fluid fast. The line was named a Dental Product Shopper Best Product, and it comes in 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4 sizes.
- Lint Free Surface – no fibers left in the patient mouth or on instruments after use.
- 100% Purified Cotton – medical grade cotton through the whole sponge, not a synthetic blend.
- Soft Textured Face – the surface does not stick to tissue or gingiva.
- Highly Absorbent 4-Ply – four cotton plies give strong uptake for a general use sponge.
Cotton Nonwoven Sponges for Everyday Dental Use
The general use sponge has to do a little of everything, and this one was designed to combine the most desirable sponge characteristics in a single product. It starts with 100% purified, medical grade cotton, formed into a nonwoven with a smooth, textured and lint free surface. That surface is the difference patients feel, because it does not stick to tissue or gingiva and leaves no fibers behind. Absorbency stays high thanks to the 4-ply cotton construction. The sponges are all natural and biodegradable, a point that matters to practices watching their waste stream. Dental Product Shopper named the line a Best Product, and three sizes, 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4, cover daily use across the dental office.
