Old Dominion University Explorer EXD 11/12
Advantages & Clinical Significance
      • Hu-Friedy explorers feature Duraspond®, a thin and flexible alloy that resists breakage and provides superior tactile sensitivity to improve accuracy of deposit detection.
      •  The universal characteristics make it ideal for detection of calculus and root irregularities of the entire dentition with a single instrument, contributing to an efficient clinical experience and ensuring a smooth and comfortable patient exam.   

 
Novatech™ Probes
Advantages & Clinical Significance
      • This probe features a unique right-angle design that allows for the best adaptability in areas of limited access, while still maintaining crown clearance. 
      •  The unique shape supports the ability to maintain proper adaptation while maintaining a neutral wrist position, effecting probing technique while minimizing wrist pain and stress associated with non-neutral wrist positions.  
      •  Hu-Friedy probes feature Qulix® color-coding which provides millimeter markings that are accurate and will not chip, flake or fade, to ensure consistent clinical outcomes. 
      •   Available in a variety of patterns to suit clinical preference.     

 


Colorvue®
Advantages & Clinical Significance
      • Colorvue plastic probes feature a vivid yellow tip with black markings for the best intraoral visibility and reduction in eye strain, contributing in improved overall wellness for the clinician.
      • The flexible rounded tips ensure a comfortable patient experience and the fun, pleasing colorful design makes it a good choice for children.
      • Colorvue is safe for use around implants and with easy to read markings and excellent contrast, it's a great probe for all patients.
      • The twist-on design allows for easy replacement of worn tips.
      • Try the expro (explorer/probe) instrument for space-saving & clinical efficiency. The Colorvue expro is available in 3 best-selling patterns.
