A dental cleaning attachment for a dental handpiece which comprises a
disposable prophy angle having a neck and a right angle head, wherein the
neck is removably attached to the dental handpiece. A polishing cup is
rotatably connected to the head of the prophy angle. An encompassing
toroidal pouch has a tube fluidly formed to and extending from the
toroidal pouch. The tube runs externally along a top surface of the neck,
is bent at a right angle, goes through a rear aperture in the head of the
prophy angle and into a top aperture in the polishing cup. A paste
material is carried within the toroidal pouch, the tube and the polishing
cup. When the dental handpiece is gripped by a hand of a dental hygienist
and the polishing cup is applied to a tooth, any finger of the hand of
the dental hygienist can squeeze the toroidal pouch to force some of the
paste material through the tube and out of the polishing cup, so that the
paste material can be applied onto the tooth for cleaning.
