- For specialized periodontal debridement in posterior regions
Uses
- Posterior Calculus Removal:
- Primarily used to remove calculus on all surfaces of premolars and molars
- Interproximal Access:
- Specifically engineered to reach difficult interproximal surfaces that standard tips may miss
- Subgingival Debridement:
- The curved, probe-sized design facilitates access into periodontal pockets, typically those greater than 5mm, for thorough cleaning
- Biofilm and Stain Management:
- Effective at disrupting attached biofilm and removing stains in hard-to-reach posterior locations
Features
- Anatomical Configuration:
- A standard diameter contra-angle tip with a left-hand curve for precise adaptation to specific tooth quadrants
- S-Series Compatibility:
- Fully compatible with Hu-Friedy Symmetry IQ® (3000 and 4000), Satelec®, and NSK® piezoelectric generators
- Advanced Metallurgy:
- Crafted from a specialized blend of stainless steel designed to optimize vibration frequency and amplitude for maximum scaling efficiency
- Guardian™ Wrench:
- Supplied with a patented, color-coded, torque-limiting wrench that acts as a protective tip carrier during handling and sterilization
- Design Equivalency:
- Comparable in design and function to the Satelec H4L tip
Benefits
- Enhanced Clinical Results:
- The curved shank allows for better adaptation to complex posterior anatomy, such as furcations and root concavities, leading to more effective debris removal
- Staff Safety:
- The Guardian Wrench provides a remarkably safe, 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
- Exceptional Durability:
- High-quality stainless steel ensures the tip retains its shape and performance through repeated clinical use and sterilization cycles
