What Do Our Suction Tools Help Do?

Posted on 7/23/2020 by Dynamic Dental Office

Most people have a fear of going to the dentist. This fear has been ingrained in us from a tender age and therefore we grow up not wanting to go to the dentist unless it's absolutely necessary. At the dentist's office, we find several machines used for various tasks in correcting dental problems. One of the most prominent and widely known are the suction tools. During most checkups, we use the suction tools at some point for one reason or the other.

Protecting Your Airway

Most people with dental anxiety prefer to go through the procedure under general anesthesia. This is to avoid seeing the machines and the dentist at work due to the anxiety it causes. In this case, we use suction tools to keep the airway clear of any fluid buildup and also assist in clearing bleeding or vomiting during any procedure.

Getting Rid Of Saliva

During most procedures in the mouth, a suction tool has to be kept handy. The continuous production of saliva creates a challenge for us in maintaining a sterile environment during which the procedure is done. Proper suction machines keep the mouth dry and also help in removing surgical debris and aerosols from the mouth during and after certain procedures.

Preventing Choking and Aspiration

One of the most common fears people have when visiting us is the fear of choking. Having several foreign objects in your mouth can be a bit concerning. They can also cause difficulty swallowing and a dry mouth, which can make patients feel like they are choking. Having quality suction tools there helps eliminate secretions and debris during any dental procedure which in turn helps to remove any feelings of choking.

The suction pump is a trusty tool in our profession. It's an invaluable tool that is crucial in most dental procedures and helps a lot in keeping the patient safe and making the job that much easier for us.
