Plus exam, in combination with a conventional visual examination.
It takes only 5 minutes and is painless. For more information on

Ultrasonic Cleaning
| The cavitron is an ultrasonic scaler. Power scalers do a more
thorough job in less time. This results in significantly decreased
scaling time and healthier, cleaner teeth and gums. Hand scalers
require repetitive scrapping movements and are restricted to
adaptation of only one or two sides of the instrument. In comparison,
all four sides of a power scaler can be adapted, because the
device moves in an elliptical motion. This comes in handy when
removing stain and deposits from behind and between the teeth.
Ultrasonic scalers are more effective in removing stain as well.
The ultrasonic vibration helps control oral bacteria by breaking
down the cell wall of the bacteria. The water used to cool the
cavitron then helps to rinse away bacteria, stain and debris. |
