Dukal UBE-8053 - PSP Barrier Envelopes, Top Opening Size 3, 100/bx, 36 bx/
Dukal UBE-8053 PSP Barrier Envelopes are designed to provide secure, hygienic protection for size 3 phosphor storage plates. These top-opening envelopes help maintain infection-control standards by preventing direct contact between the plate and the patients mouth, while allowing smooth insertion and removal. Each box contains 100 envelopes, with 36 boxes per case, making them a practical choice for clinics with steady imaging volume.
Key Benefits
These envelopes offer a clean and comfortable barrier that protects PSP plates from moisture and contamination. The top-opening design allows fast loading, while the soft, smooth exterior promotes patient comfort during intra-oral imaging. The clear imaging window ensures accurate scan results without distortion.
Compatibility and Applications
The UBE-8053 envelopes are compatible with most size 3 phosphor storage plates used in digital dental radiography. They are widely used in general dentistry, orthodontics, and pediatric imaging, where elongated bitewing views or wider coverage is required.
Usage Guidelines
Insert the PSP plate fully into the envelope with the imaging surface aligned. Seal the top opening to create a complete barrier before placing the envelope intra-orally. After use, remove the plate carefully to avoid scratching the surface. Dispose of the envelope after each patient in accordance with infection-control policies.
Certifications and Safety Standards
The envelopes follow established dental infection-control guidelines for single-use barriers. They are made from safe, latex-free materials and designed specifically for intra-oral radiographic procedures.
Comparison with Competitors
Compared with generic barrier sleeves, UBE-8053 envelopes offer a smoother exterior for increased patient comfort and a more reliable seal that helps maintain the dryness of PSP plates. The top-opening format also reduces handling time, supporting an efficient imaging workflow.
Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
Dental assistants, hygienists, and general practitioners rely on these envelopes for routine bitewings and elongated posterior imaging. They are especially useful in practices that perform frequent digital radiographs and require consistent, easy-to-use barriers that maintain image fidelity.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Store the envelopes in a clean, dry location. Avoid bending or creasing the envelope before use, as this may affect patient comfort or interfere with proper plate positioning. Replace envelopes after each exposure and follow the recommended PSP plate cleaning and handling procedures.
Regulatory and Safety Information
These barrier envelopes are intended for single-use only and should not be reused. They do not replace the need for routine cleaning of PSP plates or radiographic equipment. Dispose of used envelopes according to dental waste-handling guidelines.
