  • Publication number: 20210106402
    Abstract: An apparatus for treating a tooth can include a fluid platform comprising a wall and a chamber at least partially defined by the wall. The fluid platform can be disposed against a tooth to retain fluid in the chamber and provide fluid communication between a treatment region of the tooth and the chamber by way of an access port. The chamber can have a central axis. A liquid supply port can be disposed to direct a liquid stream across the chamber along a stream axis non-parallel to the central axis. A suction port can be exposed to the chamber. The chamber can have a maximum lateral dimension in a plane extending substantially transverse to the central axis, the plane delimited by the wall along a boundary. A projection of the suction port onto the plane can be closer to the boundary than to the central axis of the chamber.
