Restore Tooth Luster
Understanding Our Innovation Through a Simple Analogy
Think of It Like Polishing a Car
Just as achieving a showroom shine on a car requires two distinct steps, creating the ideal tooth surface follows the same principle:
-
Step 1
Use a medium grit compound to remove stubborn contaminants (like tree sap or dirt on a car)
-
Step 2
Apply a fine polishing compound to achieve that critical final luster
Just as you wouldn't use the same cloth for both steps when detailing a car, our dental polishing system uses dedicated tools for each stage to prevent cross-contamination and maximize results.
The Science Behind the Two-Step Process
Coarse Polishing (Blue System)
Prophy Cup: Firm, latex-free elastomeric (Blue)
Abrasive Size: 5-60 microns
Mean Particle Size: 25-40 microns
Purpose: Remove stains, plaque, and surface imperfections
Surface Result: ~6.27 μm roughness (Ra)
Application: RADENT Medium Grit Mint Prophy Paste - 5 seconds
Essential for major contaminant removal but leaves microscopic scratches
Fine Polishing (Pink System)
Prophy Cup: Soft, latex-free elastomeric (Pink)
Abrasive Size: Diamond particle size: ≤5µm (D100).
Mean Particle Size: Proprietary, estimated in the 0.5–3µm range based on cumulative size distribution.
Purpose: Smooth microscopic scratches, enhance gloss
Surface Result: 0.04-0.05 μm roughness (Ra)
Application: DiaShine® Polishing paste - 4 seconds
Creates mirror-like finish through uniform light reflection
Note: These values are based on clinical testing documented in our patent filing (Inventor: Ajay Kumar, Palmdale, CA) and validated through surface height mapping analysis.
Innovative Features
LOTUS® Prophy Angles & Cups
Revolutionary dental polishing system featuring:
- Two Specialized Prophy Angles: Each designed exclusively for its polishing stage
- Color-Coded Cups: Blue firm cup for coarse polishing, Pink soft cup for fine polishing
- Integrated Splatter Guards: Positioned within 1mm of cup edge for maximum protection
- Anti-Contamination Design: Soft cups prevent abrasive particle retention between stages
- RADENT Medium Grit Mint Prophy Paste Compatibility: Optimized for 5-second coarse polishing protocol
Patent-pending technology ensures consistent results and prevents cross-contamination between polishing stages.
DiaShine® Diamond Intra Oral Polishing Paste
Our fine polishing stage features the innovative DiaShine® polishing paste, containing:
- Ultra-fine particles (0.05-5 microns) for superior surface smoothness
- Gloss-enhancing compounds for maximum light reflection
- Natural Diamond • Food-Grade Ingredients • Holistic Formula
- Ultra-fine diamond particles (mesh ≤5 µm) for smooth, high-gloss finishes with minimal pressure.
Applied with the LOTUS Soft Cup for just 4 seconds, DiaShine® delivers exceptional results in minimal time.
Complete Kit System
All four components packaged together: two LOTUS prophy angles, RADENT Medium Grit Mint Prophy Paste, and DiaShine® paste for seamless clinical workflow
Non-Overlapping Particle Sizes
Distinct abrasive distributions (80% of coarse particles 10-60μm, 90% of fine particles 0.05-3μm) ensure optimal performance
Clinically Proven Results
Achieves surface roughness values of 0.05 μm - comparable to professional car detailing standards
Proven Clinical Results
Clinical Validation
Our testing demonstrates that the RADENT Medium Grit Mint Prophy Paste (5 seconds) + DiaShine® Polishing paste (4 seconds) protocol using LOTUS cups creates a surface that's 25% smoother than cleaning alone. This dramatic improvement in surface smoothness directly correlates with reduced bacterial adhesion potential.
Why Surface Smoothness Matters
Clinical studies demonstrate that surfaces with Ra values below 0.2 μm show marked reductions in biofilm development compared to rougher surfaces (Ra >1 μm). Our system achieves Ra values of approximately 0.05 μm.
Minimizes microscopic pits and grooves, providing fewer bacterial attachment points
Smooth surfaces inhibit the initial adherence and colonization phase of bacterial biofilm development
The absence of microscopic irregularities reduces bacterial attachment strength
Biofilm growth requires stable attachment sites; reduced roughness decreases this opportunity
Natural saliva flows uniformly over smooth surfaces, removing bacteria more effectively
