A DÜRR DENTAL innovation

DÜRR DENTAL has developed the prophylaxis cannula for maximum protection against aerosols. Its special protective shield at the tip of the cannula makes it unique, as it can be rotated and fixed as required. This provides a level of suction that far exceeds what conventional cannulas can achieve.

Maximum precision in suctioning

Significantly higher aerosol uptake than conventional suction cannulas

Germ-laden aerosol is reduced by up to 100% in the patient‘s mouth (based on in-house tests with a suction volume of 300 l/min).

Prevents irritation of the mucous membranes due to jet powder

Thanks to the targeted focusing of the cannula in the mouth, the powder flow can be accurately directed at the teeth and aspirated – thus providing optimum protection for the oral mucosa.

Best protection for preserving / prosthetic treatments

Due to its large opening, the prophylaxis cannula is particularly advantageous for suctioning larger particles or a higher volume of water, as well as for rubber dam applications.

Best protection even without an assistant - The Y-Adapter

The Y-Adapter has been developed especially for dentists who work without an assistant and therefore need a hands-free suctioning solution. It allows you to reduce aerosols as effectively as possible, even when use of intraoral spray mist suctioning equipment is not possible. The prophylaxis cannula and a flexible saliva ejector are connected to a suction tube using the Y-Adapter. The saliva ejector is placed in the oral cavity. The prophylaxis cannula positioned at the side of the mouth reduces aerosols. Another advantage of the Y-Adapter is that by closing the opening for the saliva ejector using the plug provided, an adapter is formed for connecting all 16 mm cannulas from DÜRR DENTAL to 11 mm suction handpieces.
