How to choose suitable powders for dental soda jets: advice from the MDS company

In modern dental practice, choosing the right powder for hand blasters and soda jets plays a key role in ensuring an effective and safe procedure, as well as long-term operation of dental tools. In this article, we will look at how to choose the perfect powder for your tool and provide useful advice from the experts at the MDS manufacturer.

Choice of powder for dental appliances, key factors:
• Chemical composition of the powder: It is important to consider the chemical composition of the powder, which may include various components and be based on calcium, erythritol, glycine or soda. Each of these components has its own advantages and affects the effectiveness of the procedure in different ways. It is necessary to take into account the goal and choose the powder that will be comfortable for the patient and will ensure a small consumption and a good result.
• Particle size: The particle size, that is, the abrasiveness of the powder, plays an important role. First of all, high-abrasive powders effectively deal with rough plaque from coffee or cigarettes, but affect the more invasiveness of the gums in the procedure, while low-abrasive powders can be used to clean light plaque without fear of damaging the patient's gums. There are also powders whose abrasiveness is intended for cleaning the surface of implants and soft tissues. For example, Erythritol with a particle size of 14 μm performs this function at the MDS manufacturer.
• Device design: When choosing a powder, you should take into account the design of your handiblaster or soda jet. High-quality devices have small holes with a precise design, which allows efficient use of powder and ensures high cleaning efficiency and minimal material consumption.
 • Powder quality: The powder must be of high quality and meet all safety and efficacy standards. It is important to choose powder from reliable manufacturers to avoid problems with low efficiency and possible complications during procedures.

Tips from MDS experts:
•  Make sure the powder chemistry is appropriate for your needs and the type of procedures you are performing. Consult the experts and get a complete understanding of the available powders and the functions of their use.
•  Pay attention to the design of the equipment and choose the powder that best suits your equipment. Manufacturers often provide photos of powders under a microscope. Make sure there are no suspicious dark particles in the powder. This should not happen, it leads to the breakdown of the nozzle of the soda jet!

CONCLUSION:
Do not forget about the quality of the powder and choose only high-quality products from proven manufacturers. Correctly selected powder for dental devices plays an important role in ensuring the efficiency and safety of the procedures.
Choose a quality product based on the needs of your practice and the type of procedures you perform.
