Abstract: A system and method for attaching a dental water supply bottle to a bottle mounting bracket associated with dental equipment. The system includes a collar configured to be attached to a neck region of a dental water supply bottle, one or more attachment openings defined by the collar, and a quick release adapter. The adapter may include one or more mounting bracket attachment slots and one or more quick release structures. Thus, the adapter can be mounted to the collar by placing the one or more quick release structures into the one or more attachment openings, and the adapter can be disengaged and removed from the collar by manually articulating the quick release structures without the use of tools. The bottle, collar, and quick release adapter may be mounted to a new or existing dental water supply mounting bracket using the mounting bracket attachment slots.

Abstract: A pitching training device generally having a platform with a generally T-shaped end and a raised pitchers rubber configured to support the pitcher during delivery of the underhanded pitch, and a pair of removable heel guides to inhibit rotation of a drive foot of the pitcher. A stride section, removably connected to and positioned to extend longitudinally from said generally T-shaped end. A goal post assembly configured to movably position a stride bar across the stride section. The stride bar is positioned as a target for a drive foot of the pitcher to clear a predetermined height during the underhanded pitch. The device is lightweight and portable, useable indoors or on a practice field and is operable for left or right handed pitching.

Abstract: A dental sensor holder including a loop of material and an adjustable bond. The adjustable bond portion is located on the inside of the loop which may selectively be engaged to join adjacent portions of the loop into a functional bitewing.

Abstract: A dental sensor holder including a strip of pliable, longitudinally elastic material having two ends. The holder is constructed by permanently bonding the two ends of the strip to form a somewhat elastic loop. In addition, the sensor holder includes an adjustable bond portion on the inside of the loop which may selectively be engaged to join adjacent portions of the strip into a functional bitewing.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods of treating water sources, including, but not limited to, dental unit water sources, in order to reduce the titer of bacteria and other pathogens in those water sources and also to inhibit biofilm growth and maintenance in surfaces, such as dental unit water lines, that come into contact with those water sources. The disclosure also provides solid compositions comprising silver citrate which are suitable for use in the disclosed treatment methods, and further provides methods for preparing such solid compositions.
