The Cavitron ultrasonic scaler system effectively removes subgingival biofilm to help improve periodontal health. The Cavitron can be used with the new THINsert for subgingival root surface debridement, and the SoftTip insert, which allows comprehensive scaling around titanium implants.

Oraqix is a non-injectable local anaesthetic designed for use in scaling and root planing. With an onset of just 30 seconds and a relatively short duration (20 minutes), it is both quick for the practitioner and short lasting for patient comfort.

Many hygienists like to conclude the treatment by hand, and Dentsply's Flexichange range offers soft-grip silicone handles and the range of scalers, curettes and hoes all fit comfortably in the hand, minimising hand fatigue and improving grip and rotational control.
