SALIVA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
A saliva management system may be configured to manage fluid transfer with respect to first and second bodily regions. The system may include an anchoring member and a connector member. The anchoring member may be configured conformingly engage the first and second bodily regions. The connector member may include a capture portion and a fluid transfer portion. The capture portion may be configured to receive a central portion of the anchoring member. The fluid transfer portion may be being fluidically connected to a supply source.
MULTI-FUNCTIONAL VISUAL ELECTRIC TOOTHBRUSH
Disclosed is a multi-functional visual electric toothbrush, including a main unit, an oral viewer, an interdental cleaning appliance and an electric toothbrush head. The oral viewer is connected to the main unit, the interdental cleaning appliance is connected to the front end of the oral viewer, and the electric toothbrush head is connected to a toothbrush driving mechanism. A circuit system and a control system of the main unit can not only transfer the energy of a power supply to the toothbrush driving mechanism, so as to drive the electric toothbrush head to work for large-area oral cleaning, but also connect a lighting system, an observation system and a switch of the oral viewer to control the oral viewer to work. The interdental cleaning appliance may be used cooperatively with the oral viewer to perform targeted cleaning on difficult-to-clean food debris in an oral cavity.

Suction Device
The invention relates to a suction device for intraoral use, comprising a suction line and a tongue protection, said suction line being bent substantially U-shaped, which are configured by a molded part, in particular integrally with one another. The suction tube comprises a connection which points mesially for a suction hose. In the course of the suction tube the connection is adjoined by an upper U-leg, a mesial U-central portion and a lower U-leg, said legs extending distally from the U-central portion. The lower U-leg comprises suction openings and is surrounded by a suction sponge which covers the suction openings. The suction tube terminates at the distal end of the lower U-leg in an end suction opening which is covered by the suction sponge.
Disposable dental valve device having a socket end
A disposable dental valve device is disclosed having a valve body having an interior, a tip receiving end for receiving a tip, a socket hose receiving end for receiving a tube having a beaded end, a lumen formed between the tip receiving end and the socket hose receiving end, and a partial opening formed in the valve body, a rotatable valve sealing body adapted to be inserted into the partial opening, and the rotatable valve sealing body having a bore for alignment with the lumen formed between the tip receiving end and the socket hose receiving end.
Dental valve device having a flexible tubing
A dental valve device has a valve body having a tip receiving end having a flexible tubing extending outwardly from the tip receiving end with the flexible tubing having a flexible tubing opening, a hose receiving end, a lumen formed between the flexible tubing opening and the hose receiving end, and a partial opening formed in the valve body, and a rotatable valve sealing body adapted to be inserted into the partial opening, the rotatable valve sealing body having a bore for alignment with the lumen formed between the flexible tubing opening and the hose receiving end, the bore having a tip receiving opening and a hose receiving opening.
Dental bite block device
A dental bite block device includes a front wall, a flat lateral sidewall, and a concave lateral sidewall that define a longitudinal channel that extends through the device. The lateral sidewalls are connected by a crossbar, and the channel can be filled with polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) dental impression putty. When the device is positioned in the patient's mouth, the flat lateral sidewall faces the right inner check of the patient, the patient's tongue rests against the concave lateral sidewall, and the patient's upper and lower teeth rest open on the front wall. Once the PVS putty sets, it forms a solid half cylinder-shaped member that includes impressions of a plurality of the patient's upper and lower teeth, which assist to maintain the device in place. The front wall and concave sidewall further include an opening that defines a clip for a saliva ejector.

Suction handpiece for a dental treatment unit
A suction handpiece for a dental treatment unit has a negative pressure connection which can be connected with a negative pressure source of the treatment unit. A saliva connection of the suction unit can be connected with a saliva suction cannula and an atomized spray connection that can be connected with an atomized spray suction cannula. A branched flow path connects the negative pressure connection with both the saliva connection and the atomized spray connection and includes a branching section on which a negative pressure channel ending on the negative pressure connection divides into a saliva channel ending on the saliva connection and an atomized spray channel ending on the atomized spray connection. The atomized spray channel at its narrowest point has a first cross sectional area which is at least twice as large as a second cross sectional area at the narrowest point of the saliva channel.
