What is removed during root scaling?? | calculus and cementum |
What technique is used during root planing | using a curette overlapping horizontal, vertical, and oblique strokes (always is a coronal direction) it is this cross-hatching that gives the root surface an optimally smooth surface as well as maintaining root anatomy |
What does cementum attach to on the tooth?? | periodontal ligament |
Where can the beaver tip be used? | supragingivally |
Where can a perio- probe/furcation tip be used?? | subgingivally / in the furcation |
How does hand scaling work?? | scaling is the mechanical removal of plaque, stains, and calculus from the crown and root surfaces |
What are the benefits of ultrasonic scaling? | ultrasonic scaling removes the least amount of cementum, provides water lavage and better visualization of the tissue while flushing out debris from the pocket |
What water flow/power setting should be used for a beaver tip?? | high water, high power |
What water flow/ power setting should be used with the perio-probe/furcation tip?? | low water/low power |
Is Heska perioceutic gel a local or systemic antibiotic?? | local |
What technique is used to apply HESKA gel? | The gel is applied using a blunted needle, then packed into the pocket using the spatula tool |
What is HESKA periocutical gel?? | Doxycycline |
How does HESKA periocutical gel work? | reduces pocket depth by reducing the bacteria load within the pocket, Which encourages re-adhesion of the tissue |
What is the brand name for the antibiotic gel? | Doxirobe, |
