9.2 Scaler handpiece
Overview
The Vector Scaler handpiece is suitable for the
efficient removal of dental calculus and of con-
crement.
The cooling channel runs to a point just before
the instrument tip. This offers the following
advantages:
– Less water used, therefore less aerosol forma-
tion.
– Less contamination.
– Better clarity.
– Easier aspiration.
– Better cooling, as the fluid flows directly over
the working tip.
During treatment using the Scaler handpiece,
fluid is applied as a constant stream.
