Isolite — Cool Dental in Lethbridge, AB

What is Isolite?

Do you dislike dental procedures because of associated discomfort? For instance, having to keep your mouth open for a long period of time?

Here at Cool Dental in the Lethbridge area, we’re aware of the challenges that patients and dental professionals experience during procedures. We strive to invest in solutions that can reduce these struggles and increase patient comfort.

One device that helps us make patients feel more comfortable is the Isolite dental isolation system. This simple tool can perform several jobs at once. Most importantly, it enhances the dental chair experience for patients and dental professionals alike.

The Isolite is a multi-awarded hands-free suction and retraction unit. It’s a patented mouthpiece made of hypoallergenic, polymer material. It’s available in 6 different sizes, including one for children, to ensure a proper fit.

Isolite helps keep your mouth open during dental procedures. It also retracts the tongue, protects the cheek, and guards your airway. It eliminates the need for constant spitting as the suction removes liquid, keeping the mouth dry and preventing contamination.

Isolite is flexible and is easy to fit into the mouth. It also provides a place to rest your jaw. Overall, it helps improve safety and enhances productivity during procedures.

How does the Isolite work?

Isolite helps provide an ideal working space for you and your dentist. It allows for more accurate and successful procedures. Here’s how this dental innovation works:

Illumination. It comes with bright illumination, giving your dentist a clearer view of your mouth. It gets rid of the need to keep adjusting overhead lighting. It also allows you to relax in the dental chair, not having to move your head often to help your dentist see your mouth better.
Tongue retraction and airway protection. Your dentist won’t have to battle with your tongue movements throughout the procedure. The Isolite keeps it out of the way with its retraction function, providing a seamless workflow for your dental team, and preventing you from inhaling or swallowing contaminants.
Continuous evacuation. The Isolite works better than a rubber dam or manual suction in keeping the mouth dry. It offers a hassle-free experience as you no longer have to get up several times to spit excess saliva in your mouth. It eliminates interruptions, which helps shorten your overall treatment time.
