Ultrasonic scalers
Power scaling devices are either ‘sonic’, vibrating between 3,000 and 8,000 times per second, or ‘ultrasonic’, operating between 20,000 and 50,000 Hz. The ultrasonic ones tend to work better than the sonic kind, deplaquing and flushing the periodontal pocket well, and destroying bacterial cell walls with cavitating bubbles in their water streams. Ultrasonic scalers are either ‘magnetostrictive’, where energy is converted to elliptical strokes in the unit's metal rod, or ‘piezoelectric’, where strokes go in a linear pattern, back and forth, regulated by crystals in the ceramic handpiece.

When a set of restorations are completed together, such as for a smile makeover or full mouth rehabilitation, each step’s importance increases. One mismanaged piece can turn a masterpiece into a disaster. From planning to the final polish, the delivery of excellence rests on crucial principles.
