Description
Bite Block Covers
Bite Block Covers are protective, single-use barriers designed to cover the bite blocks on X-ray machines, particularly for panoramic and 3D imaging. These clear plastic sleeves are a critical part of infection control, providing a hygienic surface for patients to bite down on while protecting expensive imaging equipment from saliva and contaminants.
Key Features
-
Manufactured from soft, durable, medical-grade plastic that is latex-free and odorless to ensure maximum patient comfort.
-
Specifically designed to fit standard bite blocks for various X-ray systems, including panoramic (OPG) and 3D imaging units (e.g., Siemens, Gendex, Sirona, and Vatech).
-
Acts as a reliable physical barrier that reduces the risk of cross-contamination between patients and eliminates the need for time-consuming chemical disinfection of the bite block.
-
Features a thin, transparent design that does not interfere with the quality of the X-ray image or the patient’s ability to correctly position their jaw.
-
Available in multiple sizes—commonly 1" x 2", 1.5" x 3", or 2" x 3"—to accommodate different manufacturers' equipment specifications.
-
Typically packaged in bulk (300, 500, or 1,000 pieces per box) for convenient, high-volume use in busy dental practices.
