Description
These disposable HVE tips are designed to provide powerful suction while minimizing patient discomfort. The "vented" design features relief slots or a unique S-shaped cut on one end, which prevents the tip from locking onto oral soft tissues (cheek or tongue) during procedures.
Most of these tips are reversible ("combo tips"): you can insert the vented end into the valve to use the non-vented side for surgical-grade suction, or flip it to use the vented side for general hygiene and restoration where tissue protection is a priority. They are made from rigid plastic, allowing them to also function as a cheek retractor.
