It probably is pledget - unless anyone can support another theory
Non-ProZ.com Dec 29, 2004:
aspirasaliva and cannula aspirasaliva are fine, only I am not aware that plegette means that (or even exists) - pledget does exist, no doubt.
Angie Garbarino Dec 29, 2004:

esiste una \'plegette\' con il significato di \'cannula\' in:
http://www.casa-vision.com/article.asp?articleid=1
es. \"...a Schirmer 2 test, in which a nasal plegette is inserted to determine if the patient has reflex tearing...\"
anche se in un settore diverso dall\'odontoiatria.
Come \'aspira-saliva\' esiste anche \'saliva ejector\'
