- A high-performance Periodontal (Perio) scaling tip designed for the Vector Super Sonic Air Scaler and is a direct replacement for KaVo-style sonic scalers
Uses
- Subgingival Debridement:
- Effectively removes calculus and biofilm from below the gum line
- Periodontal Pocket Cleaning:
- Designed to navigate the anatomy of periodontal pockets to treat early-to-moderate gum disease
- KaVo Alternative:
- Serves as a high-quality replacement for the KaVo #7 Perio Tip, fitting both original KaVo SONICflex handpieces and Vector units
Features
- Slim Profile:
- Features a thin, tapered design that allows for gentle insertion into the sulcus with minimal tissue distension
- 17,000 Hz Optimization:
- Engineered to withstand the high-frequency vibration of the Vector Super Sonic system, delivering nearly 3x the power of traditional air scalers
- Premium Material:
- Manufactured from durable, corrosion-resistant stainless steel for a long clinical lifespan
- Sterilization:
- Fully autoclavable to maintain strict hygiene standards
Benefits
- Patient Safety:
- As an air-driven component, it is completely safe for patients with pacemakers, as it produces no electromagnetic interference
- Clinician Comfort:
- The high frequency reduces noise and vibration feedback, leading to less hand fatigue during long hygiene appointments
- Superior Visibility:
- Air scalers generate less heat than ultrasonic units, allowing for a lighter water spray and a much clearer view of the subgingival treatment area
- Gentle Treatment:
- The three-dimensional orbital movement of the tip provides effective scaling while being gentler on the root surface than some ultrasonic inserts
