PrepStartTM
PrepStart
produces a flow of alpha alumina particles propelled by a controlled stream
of compressed air. Capable of cutting precisely defined cavity preparations,
the particle stream can be finely focused to gently micro-abrade the smallest
of carious areas. Not only is more healthy tooth structure conserved,
since PrepStart generates no heat or vibration, the likelihood of micro-fracturing
and tooth chipping is reduced -- and anesthesia is seldom required.

AIR ABRASION, MICROETCHERS
& ACCESSORIES
Microetcher IITM Intraoral
Sandblaster
Provides a precise, reliable abrasive stream and is finger button
controlled. .048" or .032" tips are available, plus four different
nozzle angle options.
Chairside bonding changed forever
when we introduced the original Microetcher Intraoral Sandblaster, Precision
micro-roughening with our new Microetcher II improves bond strength up
to 400%. By increasing the surface area and simultaneously activation
the surface, all mechanical bonding procedures are improved.
The new nozzle assembly can
be rotated 360 degrees and is removable for autoclaving or inter-changing.
- Longer lasting porcelain
repairs.
- Fast and easy cement removal.
- Ideal for orthodontic and
other appliances.
Microetcher ERC 
Increase
bond strength by intraoral sandblasting. It has long been recognized that in cementing
two materials the bond strength is increased by roughening the material
surface. The Model ERC is a precision micro sandblaster designed for use
in the operatory. Applications include porcelain repair in the mouth,
composite repair, adhesion of Maryland bridges, crown cementation, recementation
and much more.
The Sand-Trap
Patented clear plastic device
designed to confine aluminum oxide particles and remove them by suction
during intraoral or chairside sandblasting.
Air Pressure Booster
Designed for house compressors with low supply pressure, the Pressure
Booster roughly doubles the pressure of your house compressor. View image.
Prime AirTMCompressor
Custom engineered for use with the MicroPrep
and PrepStartTM, the Prime Air is a high performance
oiless compressor. The Prime Air will support multiple MicroPreps with
super clean, high pressure air. The Prime Air is very quiet and serves

The new Power PlusTM
Air Booster is the cost effective solution for providing
the air pressure required to operate your air abrasion system effectively.
Many existing older model dental compressors are simply not powerful or
consistent enough to insure the full range of operating capabilities of
newer air abrasion systems. This results in slow cutting speeds and tip
clogs, and limits performance greatly. With air pressure set at 100 PSI,
cutting occurs nearly twice as fast as when set at 80 PSI. Ideally, up
to 120 PSI is desired, and few dental compressors do this without modification.
Now you
don't have to touch your compressor. The PowerPlus eliminates the
need for a costly new compressor purchase or upgrade to generate more
PSI. Effectively doubling your air pressure up to 120 PSI, Power Plus
eliminates most compression issues. Installation can also be handled by
your staff so there won't be any additional installation costs. If you're
already using a MicroetcherTMII chairside, you have what you
need to hook right up. PowerPlus won't interfere with the operation of
your other handpieces, doesn't take any more counter space than the PrepStart
and also offers the optional flexibility of an under-the-counter installation.
The PrepStartTM
and PowerPlusTM Partnership. The new PowerPlus Air Booster now makes
installation of your PrepStart Air Abrasion system even easier and gives
your in house air a boost at the same time. The PowerPlus partnership
with PrepStart is the cost effective solution for providing optimal
air pressure. Ply it into any MicroetcherTM or
other air outlet that provides as little as 69 PSI and the Power Plus
recompresses the air to 120 PSI. Just plug your PrepStart or other air
abrasion system into PowerPlus and you're ready to go. PowerPlus is available in two ways, as a companion unit as shown
with the PrepStart or as a base component for installation in a cabinet.
If no Microetcher outlet exists, the PowerPlus can be quick connected
into an existing air line with the Easy Connect Kit. It's virtually maintenance
free, requiring only cleaning of the outside housing as needed and quiet,
compact and nonelectric.
MICROPROPHY AIR POLISHERS
& ACCESSORIES
Microprophy EX
Stain Removal
System - The affordable air polisher.
For most effective and efficient
stain removal and prophylaxis, MicroprophyTM
air polishing is the only thorough way to clean interproximally,
around orthodontic fixtures and into occlusal grooves. Pits and fissures
can be cleaned quickly prior to acid etching and sealing.
Microprophy
Consisting of a canister, a finger
button controlled handpiece, an inline pressure regulator and autoclavable
tips, the Microprophy ejects a stream of either sodium bicarbonate or
small micron aluminum oxide slurry. Requires air hookup only. Unit may
be ordered two ways as shown with or without an extended handpiece kit.

MICROETCHER, MICROPROPHY
& MICROPREP INSTALLATION KITS
Microetcher and Microprophy Quick Disconnects
Quick Disconnect Installation. The
Microetcher and Microprophy are designed to operate over a pressure range
of 50 to 120 psi. Either can be installed using one of three options:
- Quick Disconnect Kit:
designed to be used in the operatory for chairside sandblasting.
The kit consists of a female connection, a tee which is spliced into
the line coming from the compressor before the pressure regulator (i.e.,
junction box or cart), and a separate male connection.
- Lab Quick Disconnect Kit:
In the laboratory there is generally an air line with 80 - 100 psi
pressure. If an air jet (stopcock) is present, the Lab Quick Disconnect
with its female connection is designed to be permanently installed on
it. The male connection is installed on the end of the Microetcher tubing.
With a female Quick Disconnect installed in the lab, and also in the
operatory, the Microetcher can be used in both places.
- Handpiece Adapter: If
there is an extra handpiece line in the operatory which can be adjusted
to 50 or more psi, the handpiece adapter can be installed on the end
of the Microetcher tubing.
