Description
Dental gloves are single-use, medical-grade examination gloves designed to protect patients and clinicians during dental procedures. They form a barrier against saliva, blood, aerosols, and common chemicals used chairside, helping to reduce cross-contamination and maintain a hygienic operatory. Available in materials such as nitrile, latex, and vinyl, these gloves are ambidextrous and sized to fit a wide range of hands for all-day comfort.

• Soft, elastic fit for tactile sensitivity during scaling, polishing, and restorative work
• Non-sterile options for routine exams; sterile pairs for minor surgical procedures
• Color choices that help quickly identify sizes and reduce cross-mixing in busy clinics

How it compares

Care and usage tips
Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, select the correct size for a snug fit without strain, and change gloves between patients and tasks. Dispose of used gloves according to local infection-prevention guidelines.
