Dental Scaler Handpiece Dental Ultrasonic Air Scaler Sonic Dental Scaler

Product Description:

A dental scaler is a handheld dental instrument used for removing plaque, tartar, and stains from the surfaces of teeth. It is an essential tool in dental hygiene and preventive dentistry. It's important to note that dental scalers should only be used by qualified professionals. Routine dental cleanings and scaling procedures should be performed by a licensed dentist or dental hygienist who can assess the individual's oral health needs and determine the appropriate treatment approach.

Features:

• Design: Dental scalers are typically long, slender instruments with a handle and a working end. The working end consists of one or more pointed or curved tips that are used to access and clean different areas of the teeth.
  2.Scaling Function: The primary function of a dental scaler is to remove calculus (tartar) and plaque from the teeth. Calculus is hardened plaque that cannot be removed by regular brushing and flossing. Plaque is a sticky film that forms on the teeth and contains bacteria.
  3.Types of Tips: Dental scalers come in various designs, each with its specific purpose. Some common types of scaler tips include:
  a. Universal Scaler: It has a curved or sickle-shaped tip and is used for removing calculus from the crowns of the teeth.
  b. Periodontal Scaler: It has a thin, curved tip used for removing calculus from below the gum line and in periodontal pockets.
  c. Gracey Scaler: It has a curved tip with one cutting edge. Gracey scalers are designed for specific areas of the teeth and are commonly used in periodontal therapy.
  d. Ultrasonic Scaler: This type of scaler uses high-frequency vibrations to remove calculus and plaque. It operates by converting electrical energy into mechanical vibrations.
  4.Manual vs. Ultrasonic: Dental scalers can be either manual or ultrasonic. Manual scalers require hand instrumentation and rely on the clinician's skill and control. Ultrasonic scalers use ultrasonic vibrations and water irrigation to remove deposits and are generally more efficient for larger-scale cleanings.
  5.Sterilization: Dental scalers must be properly sterilized between patients to prevent the transmission of infections. They are typically made of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials that can withstand sterilization processes.
  6.Professional Use: Dental scalers are primarily used by dental professionals, such as dentists and dental hygienists, during routine dental cleanings and periodontal treatments. They require proper training and expertise to ensure effective and safe use.
