Mydent International has added dental needles to its line of Defend procedural products.
Defend dental needles are triple-beveled and feature an arrow indicator to help orient the bevel position during injections. Constructed of a stainless steel, polypropylene hub with aluminum insert, the needles are siliconized to help ensure a gentle insertion into tissue, according to the company.
In addition, the prethreaded plastic hub facilitates a straight attachment to the syringe, creating a secure fit. The needles specify lot number, size, and sterile seal on each individual casing. They are designed for use on standard 1.8-mL dental syringes and are color-coded for easy diameter identification.
Available through most dental dealers, the needles are packaged 100 units per box. Licensed dental professionals can request samples for their office by emailing [email protected].
