ABSTRACT:
A splatter guard for air polishing dental devices includes a generally bell-shaped flexible member which is designed to be attached to the distal end of the air polishing device. The bell-shaped member creates a chamber which is designed to receive the back splash and splattered fluids emanating from the nozzle of the air polishing device. In this manner, the fluid from the air polishing dental device is prevented from being splattered or splashed against a patient's soft tissues, a patient's face or clothes, or the operator of the device.
