Q

Non surgical therapy-manual and machine tools

Two main groups of mechanical scalers

A
  1. Ultrasonic scalers
  2. Sonic scalers

  1. Convert electrical current into mechanical energy in form of high frequency vibrations
  2. Use air pressure to create mechanical vibration

Q

Non surgical therapy-manual and machine tools

Types of ultrasonic scalers

A
  1. Piezoelectric scaler
  2. Magnetostrictive scaler

  1. Ulternating electrical current causes dimensional change in handpiece-> vibrations
  2. Current produces magnetic field that causes instrument vibration
