Is the subgingival tip a needle-like, metal tip or plastic? If not can such a tip be used?

we only use the plastic tip even tho others were included and we feel this is the best the market has to offer as there are others out there and wehave used them but this newer one has a lot going for it as compared to the older model of same make

The one that comes with this plastic and it looks like that is what is designed to use.

I used the rubber tip too. I believe that what why it was provided. My dogs haven't had any issues to date.

The tip provided is not for fine work. BUT the plastic tip that it comes with is interchangeable with any standard one. So you can put a tip on that is perfect for fine details.

Different shades of the same. Metalic and such. Tip is realy wide best for tablets.

No! If you attempt to remove the plastic tip the whole thing will break and will need replacement tip, the plastic holds the small rubber piece inside from breaking sooner than it should

I've never had any problem with regards to fillings or crowns.... I have several fillings, a cap and a partial with metal wires. You'll be using the wand on your skin not your teeth, sorry couldn't help it.... This isn't a magnetic tool, it's a electronic wave to stimulate the blood cells. Start out with the lowest setting and gradually increase by turning the dial. After every treatment I have a rosy glow to my skin.

Rubber tip. No drag. I found it to be similar to using my finger, except it's a bit more accurate.Hope this helps.

This is slightly off topic. I just bought the new Water Pik (WP100) from Amazon. I bought the Nasal tip from Anthony Products. They have a minimum order so I had to buy four of them. Since I only have one nose I have more of the tips than I need. I still have two for the WP100 and one for the old machine (WP60, WP70). These are made of stainless steel and Delrin. The Dr. Grossan tip looks real cheap next to them.At any rate they are never used and in the sealed plastic bags. I will take $14 each plus shipping.Phil

Yes, as in pvc tubing or piping. It has two different sets of teeth, a finer set on one side and not so fine set on the other side. You might try the less fine side first. It is so sharp and handy. But remember it cuts on the pull stroke. I can imagine someone cutting their finger with it if not careful or not keeping the other hand away from the teeth.

It's a soft hollow tip. I was concerned about it when they arrived but so far I have been very pleased. Keep in mind, however, I only use mine a few minutes each day. I don't know how they will hold up under constant use.

Hi DarwinMBA! The tip has a diameter of roughly 8mm, just under 1/2". If there's anything else, just let me know. I can be contacted directly via this link:

It is. Some kind of Zinc Alloy if I'm not mistaken. The grips and the middle barrel are plastic though. And that barrel is attached to the orange tip so if you plan on removing it you'll need to be careful.

The one I received is all metal. The only plastic part is the wheel at the bottom, used to tighten the the vice onto a table. Rubber is used as a pad against the table and as vice jaw pads. And a good little vice it is.

just checked mine out....there are no threads inside or out on the tip,but it appears to be aluminum and if you are handy at all,you could thread the tip and make your own extention

The tip is probably 3/8 of an inch wide or so. Depending on how narrow the area you are working with depends on whether it will work for you or not. The idea is to run the plastic welding rod through the insert on top of the tip and when it melts, it drips into the area you are working meaning the tip doesn't go into the area rather than over the top of the area you are welding.

I scrub the tip with a toothbrush & rinse with rubbing alcohol. Works great.

Comes with a standard small round rubber cane tip. I changed the tip to a squarish pod tip which gave me greater stability. Loved that tip, but the rubber crumbled. I replaced it with another tip made of rubber and plastic, which held up well for several months with heavy use but now the plastic has worn down on the corners and the cane can skid on wet/snowy surfaces. Either of those tips allowed the cane to stand alone. If the cane fell over, I could step lightly on an edge and pop it back upright. This cane was so helpful for pre-surgery use and recovery from my total hip surgery.
