Tony Riso Hand Instrument Grips
Tony Riso Co, North Miami Beach, Fla, introduces SoftDentalGrips, formerly of Acushy. Tony Riso Co recently acquired the Acushy line of dental hand instrument grips. Invented by a dental hygienist who experienced musculoskeletal discomfort due to tightly gripping dental instruments, SoftDentalGrips provide a soft, spongy grip that allows the clinician to use a lighter grasp, reducing hand fatigue. The grips come in two varieties: a patented Soft Air Cell Silicone Grip and a Soft Mirror Grip. They fit onto most instrument handles and enlarge their diameters to 1/2 inch. As a result, the clinician can alternate from a pinch grasp to a palm grasp, reducing fatigue. The grips increase tactile sensitivity by opening the hand to a more neutral position, reducing muscle tension, and enhancing circulation and oxygenation to the muscles. The Soft Air Cell Silicone Grips are autoclavable up to 400°. (866) 986-6974; www.softdentalgrips.com.
