- Precision-crafted instrument is designed for dental professionals to remove calculus, tartar deposits, and stains during cleaning and periodontal therapy
Uses
- Heavy Calculus Removal:
- Specifically designed to tackle large, thick deposits that are difficult to remove with standard tips
- Stain Management:
- Effective at removing tenacious external stains from tooth surfaces
- Line Angle Adaptation:
- The triple bend profile allows the tip to navigate around line angles and reach interproximal surfaces more effectively than straight tips
- Initial Scaling Phase:
- Often used as the first step in a cleaning session to remove the "bulk" of deposits before switching to a thinner tip for subgingival finishing
Features
- Triple Bend Shank:
- The unique three-bend design provides multiple working surfaces and beveled edges for concentrated energy on calculus
- Big Easy Ergonomic Grip:
- Features a large 7/16" (0.43”) diameter medical-grade silicone cushion-grip
- 25K Frequency:
- Operates at 25 kHz, providing a longer stack and longer stroke compared to 30K versions
- Orange Color Coding:
- The orange grip allows for instant visual identification of the #1000 triple bend style
- Broad Compatibility:
- Precision engineered to work with most magnetostrictive handpieces
Benefits
- Reduced Hand Fatigue:
- The thick, soft, sculpted handle cushions fingers and allows for a firm grasp with less effort, which is critical for clinicians performing repeated scaling procedures
- Improved Tactile Sensitivity:
- The wide-diameter grip is designed to maintain control and "feel" even in wet operating fields
- Enhanced Scaling Efficiency:
- The beveled edges of the #1000 design focus ultrasonic energy on the corners of the tip, enabling faster removal of stubborn deposits compared to rounded tips
- Clinician Comfort:
- Ergonomically designed to reduce stress on the hand and wrist during long sessions
