Discus Dental, Inc., America’s # 1 Professional Tooth Whitening company and a leading manufacturer of professional dental products, announced today the introduction of Protégé, their comprehensive new system of ultrasonic inserts and equipment. Designed in consultation with leading hygienists and dentists, clinical tests show Protégé tips experience less wear over time than other uncoated insert tips. The extended life of the tip is due to a proprietary tip coating which strengthens the insert tip. Furthermore, Protégé inserts feature an exclusive, built-in wear indicator that lets users know when it’s time for a new insert, ensuring maximum clinical efficiency as well as patient comfort. Protégé inserts are available in 25kHz and 30kHz operating frequencies and an assortment of tip configurations to meet the unique needs of hygienists.
Not only is Protégé designed for outstanding clinical performance and convenience, it is extremely user-friendly. Its ultra-thin tip, in conjunction with an ergonomic grip designed for excellent handling, offers clinicians superior subgingival access.
One key reason why Protege is so user-friendly is that it was designed with hygienists in mind. Kristy Menage-Bernie, RDH, BS, and one of dental hygiene’s top thought leaders and speakers, says on this exciting new addition to the hygienist’s armamentarium, "Serious consideration to routine use of powered instrumentation for biofilm disruption and removal, in addition to efficient means for full-mouth debridment, is a must for progressive clinicians. The built-in wear indicator and longer lasting tips of the new Discus Dental Protégé inserts give clinicians the edge they need to integrate daily use of ultrasonics."
