  • Publication number: 20030124484
    Abstract: A suction tool embodying the invention includes a tubular suction tip having a first end intended to be connected to a vacuum source and having a second end connected to a paddle like structure intended to be inserted into an oral cavity. The paddle like structure facilitates retraction of the tongue, cheeks or lips within, and about, the oral cavity while providing desired suction to remove saliva and other foreign bodies from the oral cavity and enabling a dentist to work on teeth without the danger of causing injury to the retracted tongue, cheek or lips. In one embodiment, the paddle like structure has two opposing surfaces, one surface having a large orifice for facing the work area and enabling the flow of debris into the suction tip while the other surface has no openings and is designed to face (i.e., retract) the tongue and other soft tissue.
