Toothbrush
In partnership with the Susan G. Komen Foundation, Curaprox has created a limited edition of its CS 5460 toothbrush, packaged in kits of six brushes in various shades of pink, for breast-cancer awareness. Through Oct. 31, 25% of the retail price will be donated to the foundation. According to the manufacturer, the toothbrush’s gentle Curen filaments are densely packed to create an efficient cleaning surface, and the compact head reaches every corner of the mouth.

Software Integration
In Dolphin Management’s latest integration, Zeeno enables patients to check in for their appointments using a robotic office assistant. Zeeno can handle multiple tasks and appointments simultaneously, according to the company, while keeping patients engaged and informed with educational videos and practice introductions. The robot also assists staff with such tasks as instrument handling and escorting patients.

Archwires
The Infinity archwire was designed to address the challenges associated with standard coating processes and to maintain its esthetic appearance throughout treatment. According to the manufacturer, an innovative etching process avoids such problems as chipping after a few weeks of use, compromised wire size from an additional coating layer, and increased friction during treatment. The archwire, which comes in a natural color to blend with enamel shades, is also available in an extra-broad archform.
