Earth City, Mo., Oct. 15, 2014 – Young’s smallest, most compact prophy angle is now available in a contra style!

The Vera by Young Contra offers the same benefits as the Vera by Young Classic prophy angle, but with a 17˚ back bend for improved comfort during polishing. Like the Vera by Young Classic, this new contra angle is versatile and user-friendly, complete with an innovative design that helps make it easier to access hard-to-reach areas, such as the distals of posterior molars and occlusal surfaces.

The Vera by Young Contra is ergonomically engineered with a slim neck diameter that helps improve visibility in areas that can be hard to see during polishing, such as tight buccal mucosa, third molars and dentition in small mouths. This new angle also has a smooth, rounded head for better maneuverability and access, and comes with enhanced grip features at the base.

This new angle features Young’s popular latex-free Elite Original™ Cup, which has become a favorite among clinicians. The cup’s strategically placed inner and outer ridges reduce splatter while delivering better interproximal cleaning and exceptional stain removal. This cup stands up to the test of polishing overlapped or crowded dentition, and its outer ridges make it easy to clean the lingual and buccal regions.

The Vera by Young Contra angle is also available with the latex-free Petite Web™ Cup, which has an inner web design that provides fast, efficient cleaning – especially in hard-to-reach areas.
