Push-on connection; gray; autoclavable; latex-free plastic Gray is the most common color in the DCI push-on tip range For DCI 5710 Economy Saliva Ejector and compatible valves Reusable; autoclave sterilizable between appointments Also in black (DCI 5750) and gray 5-pack format (DCI 5757) Quantity: 1 per Pack DCI International Push-On Saliva Ejector Tip, Plastic, Autoclavable, Gray is used for providing the saliva ejector tip component of a reusable autoclavable saliva ejector valve assembly at the dental unit's saliva ejector port during dental procedures where the push-on gray plastic autoclavable tip connects to the compatible saliva ejector valve body through its push-on connection and provides the intraoral suction tip surface that contacts the patient's oral tissues during saliva ejection throughout the clinical procedure. Gray is the standard and most widely used color in the DCI push-on autoclavable saliva ejector tip range, making the gray format the default tip color for practices stocking DCI push-on autoclavable tips for their reusable saliva ejector valve positions across the operatory.The push-on connection mechanism allows the tip to be pressed onto the compatible saliva ejector valve's tip connection point without threading or tools, enabling rapid tip installation before the patient is seated and clean removal for autoclave sterilization at the end of the appointment without requiring disassembly tools. Autoclavable plastic construction allows the tip to be processed through the standard autoclave sterilization cycle between patient appointments as part of the reusable saliva ejector tip sterilization protocol, providing a sterilizable per-patient reusable tip alternative to single-use disposable rubber tip formats. Dental assistants and clinicians who use DCI Economy Saliva Ejectors (5710) or other compatible DCI saliva ejector valve formats with push-on tip connections find DCI International Push-On Saliva Ejector Tip the autoclavable latex-free gray plastic push-on single-unit replacement tip for their active chairside saliva ejection tip management program. ? Each pack contains 1 individual DCI International Push-On Saliva Ejector Tip in gray autoclavable latex-free plastic, providing the single replacement tip unit for installation on a compatible DCI saliva ejector valve or replacement when an existing tip becomes worn, discolored, or damaged beyond continued clinical use.The single-unit pack format is appropriate for targeted individual tip replacement when only one tip requires replacement rather than a full set, providing the option to replace a single gray tip without purchasing the 5-pack gray format (DCI PN 5757) when only one replacement tip is needed. The gray format is also available in a black color variant (DCI PN 5750, 756-0735AA) for practices that use color differentiation between saliva ejector tip positions or between different valve formats at their dental unit positions. ? DCI International Push-On Saliva Ejector Tip, Gray works through its push-on connection socket at the tip's base that seats onto the compatible saliva ejector valve's tip post when pressed firmly into place, creating the friction-fit connection that holds the tip on the valve body throughout the clinical procedure under normal intraoral suction forces without the tip pulling off during chairside use. The autoclavable plastic material withstands the heat and pressure of the autoclave sterilization cycle without deforming, cracking, or losing its push-on connection geometry, maintaining the tip's dimensional integrity for continued reuse across multiple sterilization cycles throughout the tip's service life.Latex-free plastic construction eliminates the Type I latex hypersensitivity exposure risk for patients and staff with latex sensitivity that can occur with latex rubber saliva ejector tips. ? Dental assistants who manage reusable autoclavable saliva ejector tip inventories at dental unit positions and replace worn or damaged gray tips individually find the DCI 5754 single-unit pack provides the specific individual gray tip replacement needed for the push-on autoclavable format. Practices that standardize on gray push-on autoclavable tips across all their saliva ejector valve positions find the gray format the standard reusable tip color for their DCI Economy Saliva Ejector and compatible valve positions throughout the operatory. ? DCI International Push-On Saliva Ejector Tip, Gray gives dental practices an autoclavable, latex-free, gray plastic push-on saliva ejector tip for use with DCI 5710 Economy Saliva Ejectors and compatible push-on tip saliva ejector valves, reusable across multiple autoclave sterilization cycles, available individually for targeted single-tip replacement, with a black color variant (DCI 5750) and gray 5-pack format (DCI 5757) also available, 1 per pack.
