Optragate Assortment

Moisture control made easy. OptraGate retracts the lips and cheeks evenly and gently, allowing more effective, relative isolation of the treatment field. The soft, flexible material adapts to the movements of the mouth in a controlled manner and is comfortable to wear for patients e.g. during the occlusion check or X-ray imaging of the teeth.

The dentist and the dental assistant can better control a clean treatment field because OptraGate allows easy access. Dental mirrors and vacuum are used for retaining the tongue and can thus, be used in a precise and effective manner. In combination with other auxiliary equipment, such as parotid pads or sublingual cotton rolls relative isolation of the treatment field is optimized which results in more efficient and simplified treatment procedures.

• Easy access to the cavity

OptraGate® 2 is our latex-free lip and cheek retractor designed to make your day-to-day work easier. The addition of a third ring  improves patient comfort and makes it easier for them to keep their mouth open during longer treatments.

Improved comfort thanks to the third ring

The integration of an additional third ring in the OptraGate 2 reduces compressive stress on the jawbone. This enhances wearing comfort, helps your patients stay more relaxed and makes it easier for them to keep their mouth open during treatment.
