Description
Richmond Reflective Shields Plus do two jobs at once, absorbing fluids at the parotid duct while a reflective film throws light back into the oral cavity. The heart shape follows buccal curvatures and stays in check with the parotid gland, and the material does not swell as it absorbs. Large, small and money saving dual packs cover every operatory setup.
- Reflective Film – the distinctive film illuminates the oral cavity for better visibility.
- Heart Shape Fit – the shape accommodates buccal curvatures and sits correctly at the parotid gland.
- Fast Dry Field – greater absorbency delivers a dry field within seconds.
- Does Not Swell – the shield absorbs without swelling into the work area.
Absorbent Shields That Also Light the Field
Parotid shields are usually passive, a pad that soaks up saliva and nothing more. This design adds a working feature, a reflective film that bounces light back into the oral cavity and improves illumination where the clinician is looking. The absorbent side does its job quickly, producing a dry field within seconds. The heart shape is functional rather than decorative, because it follows buccal curvatures and keeps the shield positioned at the parotid gland. The durable nonwoven absorbent material takes up fluid without swelling, so it never compromises the work area as the procedure goes on. Both dentists and patients rate the shields highly, and they come in large, small and a dual pack with one of each.
