ABSTRACT:
A device for securing dental prophylaxis paste to the hand of a dental professional performing a dental cleaning. The device includes a receptacle with an opening at the top and a closed bottom. The receptacle is sized to receive a standard sized cup of pre-packaged dental prophylaxis paste. A deformable loop is connected to the receptacle for securing the receptacle to the finger of a dental professional. A support leg protrudes from the receptacle to bear against a finger adjacent to the encircled finger to thereby prevent the dental prophylaxis paste holder from rotating around the dental professional's finger.
