- A universal sickle scaler used by dental professionals for removing calculus and stains from all tooth surfaces
Applications:
- Universal scaling:
- This instrument can be used for the effective removal of supra- and subgingival calculus deposits from all tooth surfaces
- Root planing:
- The sharp tips are suitable for smoothing the tooth root surface, a procedure known as root planing
- Anterior and posterior use:
- The versatile U15/33 design is suitable for use on both anterior and posterior teeth, making it a valuable tool for general dental cleanings
Features:
-
U15/33 design:
- U15 Towner end:
- Curved sickle blade:
- This working end features a curved sickle blade, making it highly effective for scaling calculus from the mesial and distal surfaces of anterior teeth
- Precision and access:
- The curved design allows for efficient adaptation to the tooth's anatomy and is useful for accessing tight interproximal spaces
- #33 Jacquette end:
- Straight sickle blade:
- This end of the instrument features a straight blade that is effective for removing heavier, more tenacious calculus deposits
- Versatile:
- The #33 Jacquette tip is primarily used for scaling on the anterior teeth and is also effective in accessing interproximal areas
- SmartSharp technology:
- The tips are made from heat-treated, cryo-hardened 440A stainless steel
- This technology ensures the tips maintain a sharp edge and precise angle for greater efficiency and less repetitive motion for the user
- Autoclavable:
- The durable polymer handle is designed to withstand multiple autoclaving cycles, ensuring longevity and proper infection control
- Designed for control:
- The handle and tip design allow the user to easily maintain control during instrumentation with less pressure required
