Plasdent Extnd Silicone Mouth Props, Latex-Free, Child Medium, Turquoise are used for maintaining an open oral position in pediatric patients during dental examinations, restorative procedures, prophylaxis, sealant application, and other dental treatments where the clinician requires continuous intraoral access without the patient actively holding their mouth open throughout a procedure of varying duration. The medium child size positions the prop between the upper and lower arches in the posterior region, providing a stable mechanical stop that holds the bite open at the appropriate vertical opening dimension for child-sized oral anatomy without the prop being oversized for the patient's arch and biting surfaces or undersized and unstable during the procedure.

Pediatric dentists, general dentists treating child patients, dental hygienists performing pediatric prophylaxis and sealant procedures, and dental assistants managing patient positioning during child restorative appointments find Plasdent Extnd Silicone Mouth Props the latex-free turquoise child medium silicone prop for their active pediatric patient management program. ? Each pack contains 2 individual Extnd Silicone Mouth Props in child medium size and turquoise color, providing a pair of props for active chairside use. Turquoise color-codes the child medium size within the Extnd silicone prop range, which includes small pedo in neon yellow, medium child in turquoise, and large adult in dark purple, allowing the clinical team to identify and select the correct patient-size prop at a glance from a multi-size prop inventory without reading size markings during the procedure setup. Having two props per pack supports right-side and left-side placement across the same appointment or provides a backup prop when one is in the sterilization cycle. ? Plasdent Extnd Silicone Mouth Props work through their flexible silicone construction that seats between the maxillary and mandibular posterior biting surfaces on one side of the arch, where the prop's vertical dimension holds the bite open at the required opening height while the soft silicone material conforms slightly to the biting surface contact and provides a comfortable cushioned contact point that does not create pressure discomfort against the tooth surfaces or gingiva during extended prop-supported procedures.

Latex-free silicone rubber construction contains no latex proteins, eliminating latex allergy risk for latex-sensitive patients without requiring a separate non-latex prop inventory for identified latex-sensitive patients, since all Extnd silicone props are latex-free as standard. Sterilizable by all methods including steam autoclave, dry heat sterilization to 500?F (260?C), and chemical sterilization, the props can be sterilized by whichever sterilization method the practice uses without material degradation or prop deformation that lower heat tolerance materials would suffer under dry heat or extended autoclave exposure. ? Pediatric dentists performing pulpotomies, stainless steel crown placements, and composite restorations on child patients find the mouth prop supports the open bite position needed for continuous intraoral instrument access throughout the procedure without the child patient needing to sustain voluntary mouth opening effort during a long procedure. Hygienists performing pediatric prophy and sealant application find the prop allows thorough access to the posterior teeth during polishing and sealant placement steps where the child patient's mouth opening tends to close incrementally during the procedure without the prop providing consistent bite support. ? Plasdent Extnd Silicone Mouth Props, Latex-Free, Child Medium, Turquoise give pediatric and general dental practices a soft, flexible, latex-free silicone bite prop in child medium sizing and turquoise color-coding, sterilizable by all methods including dry heat to 500?F, providing consistent comfortable intraoral bite support for pediatric patients across restorative, hygiene, and preventive procedures, in a 2-prop pack.
