What do you call that plastic piece that gets fitted on the handpiece to clean teeth??
 
Our's are not plastic--------however, you are probably talking about the prophy cup (rubber) that is attatched to the prophy angle (metal) that is attatched to the handpiece (metal).
 
Okay, sorry about that. I meant to say circular rubber piece fitted on the hand piece.

No prob----actually I think there are plastic prophy angles that are disposable and typically used in mobile dental operations.
