American needle guard prides itself for being the best dental needle guard on the market. It assists with directing the needle into the needle guard sheath to limit needle sticks and protect the operator's fingers. Our dental needle guards help satisfy OSHA guidelines by allowing a safe and easy method of recapping a contaminated needle. Cleaning....no problem, our needle guard protector can be sterilized in a autoclave. Our hectagon design helps keep the needle from sliding on the tray and counter.
