- For advanced finishing and debridement of complex root structures
Uses
- Periodontal Finishing:
- Primarily used as a finishing instrument to remove residual debris after initial heavy scaling
- Deep Pocket Debridement:
- Specifically designed to enhance access into deep periodontal pockets, typically those exceeding 4–5 mm
- Furcation Cleaning:
- Engineered to navigate and clean difficult-to-reach root furcations and concavities where standard tips may fail to adapt
- Root Smoothing:
- Effective for smoothing rough root surfaces and necrotic cementum to facilitate better periodontal healing
Features
- Diamond Coating:
- Features a thin, contra-angle tip with a fine diamond-coated finish for precise debris removal
- Left-Curved Configuration:
- Specifically curved to adapt to the anatomical contours of particular posterior tooth quadrants
- S-Series Compatibility:
- Fully compatible with Hu-Friedy Symmetry IQ® (3000 and 4000), Satelec®, and NSK® piezoelectric generators
- Advanced Metallurgy:
- Constructed from a specialized stainless steel blend that optimizes vibration frequency for maximum scaling efficiency
- Guardian™ Wrench:
- Supplied with a patented, torque-limiting, color-coded wrench that serves as a protective carrier for safe handling and sterilization
Benefits
- Superior Anatomical Access:
- The contra-angle design and diamond grit allow the clinician to reach complex areas like deep pockets and root bifurcations with high precision
- Enhanced Clinical Efficacy:
- Diamond-coated tips provide more thorough cleaning of residual deposits, leading to improved clinical outcomes in periodontal therapy
- Maximized Safety:
- The Guardian Wrench enables a touch-free connection to the handpiece and prevents accidental sharps injuries during the autoclave process
- Equipment Protection:
- The torque-limiting mechanism of the included wrench prevents over-tightening, which can damage the handpiece or the tip's threading
