Prophylaxis Paste
-
Used during professional dental cleaning (oral prophylaxis)
-
Removes plaque, stains, and biofilm
-
Polishes tooth surfaces after scaling
2. Abrasiveness (Grit Size)
Prophy pastes come in different grits depending on need:
-
Fine grit – Light polishing, minimal stain removal (for children, sensitive teeth, final polish)
-
Medium grit – General stain removal
-
Coarse grit – Heavy stains (used cautiously)
-
Some pastes are multi-grit (start coarse, finish fine automatically)
3. Fluoride Content
-
May contain fluoride (e.g., sodium fluoride) to help remineralize enamel
-
Also available non-fluoridated (for patients with fluoride sensitivity or specific needs)
4. RDA Value (Relative Dentin Abrasivity)
-
Indicates how abrasive the paste is
-
Typical range: RDA 40–200
-
Lower RDA = safer for enamel and dentin
-
5. Flavor & Texture
-
Flavors: mint, bubblegum, strawberry, etc. (especially for pediatric use)
-
Smooth, creamy consistency to reduce splatter
6. Additional Features
-
May be oil-free (important before sealants or bonding)
-
Some include desensitizing agents
-
Easy rinse, low splatter formula
7. Packaging
-
Single-dose cups (infection control)
-
Tubes or jars for clinical use
