According to an aspect of the present invention there is provided a tip for fitting to a nozzle of an air abrasion dental tool. The tip comprises a tip body having a central bore that extends through the length of the tip body from an inlet end to an outlet end. The inlet end of the tip body is configured to receive and form an interference fit with the nozzle of the dental tool. The outlet end of the central bore is provided with at least one flexible prong that extends outwardly from the outlet end in a direction that is substantially parallel to longitudinal axis of the central bore.

A method of surface treating a drill, the drill including a shaft extending along a central longitudinal axis from a proximal end to a distal end, the proximal end of the shaft including a shank adapted for connection to a rotary driver, the shaft further including, distal of the shank, a fluted section including at least one flute extending along the longitudinal length of the fluted section, the method including the steps of: acid etching at least a portion of the fluted section of the shaft in order to create a visible matted effect, subsequently electro-polishing at least the portion of the fluted section of the shaft in order to visibly reduce the matted effect and subsequently creating one or more visual marking within the portion of the fluted section of the shaft.

A cartridge for delivery of a material therefrom which has a corrugated portion to allow for bending/extending to be applied to the device from which a material to be deposited can be dispensed. The bendability and extendibility allow for greater efficiency in use and application of the material into cavities, pockets, and/or crevices where one needs to deposit the material.

Teeth cleaning system, in particular dental powder jet cleaning system, including a powder container having an inlet for compressed air, and where the powder container has an outlet for a powder/air mixture, and where the outlet communicates with a pipe system via which a fluid is passed, in particular a powder/air mixture which is formed in the powder container and from which powder container can be led, where
a flow resistance of the inlet is configured relative to a flow resistance of the outlet and/or of the pipepipe system in such a way that a predetermined pressure loss is set across the inlet.
