Surgical Tip White

What is DY2216 Surgical Tip White?

The DY2216 Surgical Tip White is a disposable dental aspirator accessory engineered to fit the universal 1/8-inch port found on most high-volume evacuation (HVE) handpieces. Manufactured by Dynarex, the tip’s white polymer body provides visual contrast against oral fluids, reducing the chance of misplacement during a procedure. Its low-profile design maintains a clear line of sight while delivering consistent suction performance. The tip’s tapered geometry promotes laminar flow, helping to capture saliva and debris without creating turbulence that could compromise the operative field. It is packaged in a sterile pouch to maintain aseptic conditions until opening.

Key features

• Universal 1/8-inch fit — connects securely to any standard HVE system.
• White polymer construction — enhances visibility and prevents cross-contamination.
• Low-profile tip — minimizes obstruction in the oral cavity.
• Single-use design — eliminates sterilization steps and ensures hygiene.
• Cost-effective at $2.10 — affordable for high-volume practices.
• Compatible with a wide range of treatments — suitable for restorative, periodontal, and endodontic procedures.

Who is DY2216 Surgical Tip White for?

This tip is aimed at general dentists, oral surgeons, and dental hygienists who require reliable suction during routine and advanced procedures. It is also useful in teaching clinics where disposable accessories reduce infection risk and simplify inventory management. Because it meets CDC recommendations for single-use devices, the tip simplifies compliance audits and reduces the need for autoclave validation. It appeals to practices that prioritize patient safety and streamlined workflow.

How does DY2216 Surgical Tip White compare?

Compared with standard polypropylene aspirator tips, the DY2216 offers superior visual contrast thanks to its white color, which can reduce accidental removal. Unlike reusable metal tips, it requires no post-procedure cleaning, saving labor time and preventing potential cross-contamination. In terms of flow rate, the DY2216 maintains a minimum of 180 L/min, comparable to reusable metal tips, ensuring efficient evacuation even in deep pockets. Its polymer composition resists cracking under typical suction pressures, offering reliability across multiple cases. While the price is slightly higher than bulk polypropylene options, the hygiene benefits and ease of use often justify the modest premium in busy dental offices.
