22. Symmetry Right and Left Perio Tips The Right and Left curved Perio Tips are used to remove calculus on all surfaces of premolars and molars, especially difficult to reach interproximal surfaces. Left Perio Tip Right Perio Tip Exercise caution when using bladed and diamond-coated tips, as over-instrumentation may lead to excessive root surface removal.

Slide 27 â #S-10 S-Series Tip USS10 The USS10 is a universal, standard diameter tip used to remove heavy supragingival deposits.
Slide 28 - #100 S-Series Tip US100 The US100 is a probe-sized tip used to remove light deposits in shallow to moderate pockets and for periodontal maintenance.
Slide #30 â #P3 S-Series Perio Tip USP3 This thin-bladed curette style tip is used to remove heavy deposits and necrotic cementum on anteriors and premolars.
Slide 31 â #4R/4L S-Series Perio Tips US4R/4L- Right and Left Perio These are standard diameter contra-angle tips which are used to remove calculus on all surfaces of premolars and molars, especially difficult to reach interproximal surfaces.
Slide 32 Curved (Right and Left) Tips, Clinical view Curved tipsâfacing either left or rightâare most effective on the interproximal surfaces of posterior teeth; in furcations; wherever there are tight contacts; around malpositioned molars; and on concave surfaces. To identify a curved tip, rotate the insert so the tip is facing away from you. The direction of the first bend or angle will identify the tip as right or left. These descriptive terms (right or left) refer only to the bend in the design, not to a location for use in the mouth.

Slide 43 â Insert Wear Power scaling tips and inserts wear for the tip shorter with use. With 1 mm loss you are working with 25% less power, with 2 mm loss you have lost 50% of the effective vibration and the ability to remove calculus and plaque.
