The body may be so deformable that it forms against the surface of a tooth to effect a seal and to expose a portion of the tooth to gas circulated in the chamber. The body may overmold the liner and may be formed of thermal-plastic rubber, and the liner may be formed of a plastic material. The gas exposure chamber may be cylindrical.
