ABSTRACT:
A protective barrier that can be removably fitted over a dental instrument to protect against the transfer of contaminants from one dental patient to another via the dental instrument. The protective barrier, when in use will generally replicate the ergonomic features found on the outer surface of the dental instrument. The barrier is constructed from two mating half portions that include interior chambers and are adapted for placement over and in proximate contact with at least a portion of the outer surface of a dental instrument. The interior chambers of each half portion uniquely contain a yieldably deformable cushion-like elastomer such as polyurethane foam.
