In the field of dentistry, "de-ox tips" refers to specialized dental instruments designed for removing calculus and plaque from teeth. These tips are typically made of stainless steel and feature a pointed or curved end that allows dentists to effectively access and clean hard-to-reach areas of the teeth, such as the interdental spaces and subgingival areas.
De-ox tips are essential tools in maintaining good oral hygiene and preventing gum disease. Regular use of these tips during professional dental cleanings helps remove harmful bacteria and tartar buildup that can lead to tooth decay, gum inflammation, and other dental problems. De-ox tips are also commonly used in periodontal therapy to clean and treat the root surfaces of teeth affected by periodontal disease.
