Next Prophy Paste with Fluoride, Medium Grit is used for professional prophylaxis tooth polishing during hygiene recall appointments, new patient examinations, and preventive dental visits where the dental hygienist or dental assistant applies the prophylaxis paste to the tooth surfaces using a prophy angle and rubber cup or brush to remove exogenous stains, plaque biofilm, and surface deposits while polishing the enamel surfaces to a smooth, clean finish as part of the complete professional prophylaxis procedure. The medium grit of the Next Prophy Paste is selected for patients presenting with normal levels of exogenous staining and surface deposits that require standard cleaning and polishing without the more aggressive abrasive action of the coarse and extra coarse grit formats that are reserved for patients with heavier tobacco, coffee, tea, and food staining that medium grit cannot address as efficiently during the standard prophylaxis appointment. The unique blend of polishing and cleaning agents in the Next Prophy Paste formula provides the combination of effective exogenous stain removal and smooth surface polishing that constitutes the two objectives of the professional prophylaxis polishing step, with the cleaning agents addressing the biofilm and stain removal task and the polishing agents providing the surface smoothing action that leaves the tooth enamel with a clean, polished surface texture that resists plaque re-accumulation and provides the patient with the clean, smooth tactile sensation associated with a professional prophylaxis appointment.

Fluoride content delivers a direct fluoride treatment benefit to the tooth surfaces during the polishing step, depositing fluoride ions at the enamel surface during the polishing contact to provide the caries-protective benefit of fluoride exposure in addition to the cleaning and polishing function of the prophylaxis paste application. The non-splatter formula prevents the prophy paste from dispersing across the patient's face, clothing, and the surrounding operatory surfaces during the high-speed rotational movement of the prophy angle during tooth polishing, keeping the clinical field clean during the polishing procedure and reducing post-procedure cleanup time for the dental assistant. The smooth, creamy consistency provides the comfortable patient experience during polishing by allowing the prophy cup to glide across tooth surfaces without the gritty drag sensation that coarser prophy paste formulations can produce during application, supporting patient comfort and acceptance of the prophylaxis polishing step. The gluten-free formula accommodates patients with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease without requiring a separate specialty prophy paste for these patients. Dental hygienists who perform prophylaxis polishing at recall and maintenance appointments find the Next Prophy Paste medium grit provides the standard cleaning and polishing performance needed for the majority of adult recall patients presenting with normal staining levels at their scheduled hygiene appointment.

Dental assistants who perform coronal polishing under hygienist or dentist supervision find the unit dose cup format provides the per-patient single-use paste delivery needed for per-patient infection control compliance without paste cross-contamination between patients. Next Prophy Paste with Fluoride, Medium Grit gives dental practices a non-splatter, fluoride-containing, gluten-free prophylaxis paste with a unique blend of polishing and cleaning agents for normal cleaning and polishing at hygiene appointments, excellent exogenous stain removal, superior polishing properties, smooth creamy consistency for patient comfort, mint flavor, in unit dose cups for per-patient single-use delivery, 200 cups per box.
