The Five Most Common Errors When Using Ultrasonic Inserts

Initial periodontal trauma and prevention or periodontal disease maintenance is often an ultrasound knife outside of the manual instrument. Ultrasonic dental equipment have significant benefits for both therapeutic effect and dental care. The ability of the ultrasonic scald to provide a washbasin can clean and remove the coating of the hand apparatus. In addition, ultrasound machines are an ergonomic approach that is less likely to cause muscle strain, fatigue and pain
There is a view that the use of ultrasonic knife is easier and less dependent on technology than using hand instruments. Most of the angles of the blade, the application of lateral pressure, and the need to improve the use of instruments are eliminated by using ultrasound machines. However, using the right technology and the right ultrasound insertion are key effective ways to use it. With the use of ultrasonic instruments in oral health practice more and more, users' mistakes are becoming more and more serious.
Error 1: worn inserts
A common mistake is to use a shortened insert through wear, so the treatment for the patient is less effective. Almost all manufacturers now provide wear guidelines for their inserts. Because tips gradually lose their length, they still feel the same way, so it's not always obvious that tips have lost their effectiveness. Most manufacturers' ultrasound insertion of the small loss of more than 1 millimetre resulted in reducing the effectiveness of the instrument by about 25% and the loss of the same amount by 50% . Error 2: do not use tip terminals
Many dental hygienists make mistakes that don't use the end part. If the wear guidance notes that when it loses 2 mm to 3mm, the effect of the ultrasound insertion is 50 per cent lower, so it is logical to assume that this is the most important part of the top. Therefore, it should be carefully used to accommodate teeth.
This is certainly a familiar concept, but many dental hygienists have a hard time implementing it. For example, in a patient with a lower jaw, it is easy to extend the tip to the proximal region and adapt the middle of the tip to the middle, rather than just the last few millimeters. This will not harm the patient, but will reduce the effect of biofilm or calculi removal. Another example occurs in the linear corner and the mid-proximal end, when the top is not well adapted to the convex and perforating holes in these regions. The rotation of the periodontal cycle does not begin very quickly, nor does it follow oral hygiene to the proximal surface of the mouth or tongue. This is invalid when using simple operations. When working on the gums, it's both ineffective and potentially uncomfortable for the patient, as it leaves the surface of the tooth and contacts with the soft tissue.
Therefore, proper adaptation is a limiting factor, and ultrasonic dental supplies are like hand-held devices.
Error number 3: only use points on the root surface
Another common mistake is to use the last part of the root surface of the tooth. Magnetostrictive insertion and piezoelectric intubations have the highest power density. The insertion of this part can be very effective fractal and remove large calculus ledges. Clicking on a heavy calculus ring is a widely recommended method. Simple exposure to the enamel of the sound may be harmless because the enamel surfaces are hard. Repeated contact with the root, however, can lead to loss of tooth structure. It's a gradual process. Because there is no obvious change on a date, dental hygienist may ignore the importance of adaptation, even if they know that it can be dangerous.
