Isolite Systems will launch a small, deep vestibule (DV) mouthpiece for its dental isolation technology at the Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting in Chicago next week.
The new size was developed for patients that need a small bite block but have a relatively deeper vestibule compared to other small-mouthed people, according to the company.
For these patient types, the new shape and design of the Small DV mouthpiece allows for a more complete tongue retraction and better fit in a patient's mouth. Its expanded cheek shield shape provides improved suction that goes deeper into the vestibule. The new design features a more stable bite block and provides additional suction capacity behind the bite block itself, assuring saliva does not pool behind the mouthpiece.
"Isolite previously introduced the Medium DV mouthpiece to provide a better fit for adult patients with deeper vestibules," said Thomas Hirsch, Isolite Systems co-founder and director of clinical relations, in a press release. "We had such a positive response to the Medium DV that we wanted to bring those same advantages to our smaller-sized patients."
