Coltene/Whaledent announces new teal green dental dam

June 20, 2005
This new color complements the Hygenic Flexi Dam purple color that has been marketed for the past four years.

Coltène/Whaledent Inc. announces the immediate availability of Hygenic® Flexi Dam® Non-Latex Dental Dam in the popular non-reflective teal green color. This new color complements the Hygenic Flexi Dam purple color that has been marketed for the past four years.

The same highly regarded features such as an elastic elongation 9 times its original length remain in the teal green Hygenic Flexidam. This high level of elasticity means that Flexi Dam non-latex dental dam has an extreme resistance to tearing and a resistance to puncture from bur and instrument contact.

In addition, due to Hygenic Flexi dam's high elasticity, the clinician is assured of a tight fit around the preparation for moisture control and effective isolation. In fact, a smaller punch hole than is used with latex dam is recommended for an absolute tight fit. Both clinician and sensitized patient can be exposed without fear of latex reaction. Hygenic Flexi Dam GREEN Non-Latex Dental Dam is powder free, odorless and available in a 6"x6" size.
