With a unique hexagonal grip pattern and exclusive UltraSteel technology, LuxPoint ultrasonic inserts combine exceptional comfort and durability for a seamless scaling performance
The correlation between art and dentistry is nothing new. Both demand a blend of skill, dexterity, and a keen eye for detail when it comes to both function and esthetics. And when restoring the natural beauty obscured by wear or neglect in art or dentition, the connection between the 2 professions becomes even more evident.
"If you have a patient with really thick debris or heavy staining and you're using the LuxPoint ultrasonic scaler, it's like art. You can just make strokes back and forth along the root or enamel and watch as it removes the debris and stains really beautifully," said Debbi Viger, RDH, BHS, PHDH, FADHA. "This is awesome, because nobody wants their patient to leave with either of those things still on their teeth."
Exceptional Durability and Versatility
Providing enhanced performance thanks to exclusive UltraSteel technology, LuxPoint ultrasonic inserts feature consistent hardness and durability that is designed to last over 50% longer than industry-leading ultrasonic inserts.*
“Once I received the LuxPoint inserts, I stopped using every other brand I had in the office. This way, I could get a good feel for them,” Viger said. “In the several months that I have been using LuxPoint, I haven’t seen or noticed any wear. They are on a different level than other ultrasonic inserts I’ve used in the past.”
LuxPoint ultrasonic inserts are available in 3 tip models: Universal X-Slim, Universal Slim, and Triple Bend Slim. Viger said she's found the Universal X-Slim is great for perio patients, where it’s necessary to get deep under thick tissues, and that when using the Universal Slim, she can easily access subgingival and interproximal areas without complaints of sensitivity from her patients.
“The LuxPoint Triple Bend Slim has changed my life. It is the most exquisite ultrasonic tip because it can go anywhere and be used on any patient,” Viger said. “It’s great for heavy or light calculus removal, it can access subgingival areas comfortably for the patient, and it's amazing around ortho…it’s just really nice overall.”
Get a (Secure) Grip
In addition to its effectiveness during ultrasonic scaling procedures, LuxPoint ultrasonic inserts have a unique hexagonal grip pattern that enhances user ergonomics by minimizing hand and wrist strain, while also ensuring that clinicians always have a secure hold on their instrument.
“The grip has a very defined edge, and the comfort is amazing,” Viger said. “Depending on which gloves you’re wearing, some instruments can feel more slippery, but when using the LuxPoint ultrasonic inserts, we always have a firm grip.”
The grips are also color-coded for easy identification between the 3 tip models. “Just by looking at the instruments, you know exactly which one to pick up,” Viger assured.
Ensure an Elevated Patient Experience
The LuxPoint ultrasonic inserts’ direct tip targeted water flow limits unnecessary spray, offering better visibility and an improved patient experience. “The water flow on these instruments is just as amazing as the day I got them,” Viger said.
“I specifically remember seeing a patient who had not visited a dental office in over 20 years, so I knew it was going to be a very involved case. In about 40 minutes, which is a lot of time to be using an ultrasonic, I was able to blow everything away. The patient was super comfortable, never felt like they had a mouthful of water, and didn’t have that overspray across their face. In my 30-plus years of practicing dental hygiene, using an ultrasonic and keeping the patient that comfortable for that long is basically unheard of, so this was great.”
Quality Guaranteed
Nordent offers a variety of diagnostic, hygiene, surgical, restorative, and orthodontic instruments, including the sharp and ergonomic XDURA and Relyant scalers and curettes, which come with complimentary sharpening services through Nordent.
“I love all the Nordent instruments," concluded Viger. "I have used them for a long time, so I'm confident that when they say these LuxPoint ultrasonic inserts are going to last 50% longer, they are going to do exactly that.”
