How the Cavitron Ultrasonic Scaler Benefits You

Plaque naturally forms on your teeth after eating and drinking. If it is not removed within 24 hours, it hardens into tartar, a substance that cannot be removed by brushing or flossing alone. Tartar buildup can lead to tooth decay, gum disease and other oral health concerns. The Cavitron ultrasonic scaler uses high-frequency sound waves and a gentle water spray to break up and remove stubborn tartar and plaque from your teeth and gums.

A Comfortable and Effective Cleaning Process

The Cavitron ultrasonic scaler is designed to provide a more comfortable experience for patients. Its ultrasonic vibrations are highly effective at removing deposits while minimizing discomfort. Most patients only feel mild vibrations or a cooling sensation from the water spray, and the process does not require numbing anesthetic. This makes it an ideal option for routine cleanings and periodontal maintenance appointments.

The advanced technology behind the Cavitron also allows our hygienists to work more efficiently. By reducing the time and effort needed for scaling, the device ensures your cleaning is thorough and effective while remaining gentle on your teeth and gums.

Routine use of the Cavitron ultrasonic scaler helps protect your smile by preventing tooth decay and gum disease.
