Dental professionals utilize a variety of specialized machines to effectively clean teeth during dental appointments. Among these machines, ultrasonic scalers and air polishers stand out as the most commonly used.
Ultrasonic Scalers: These devices employ high-frequency sound waves to gently remove tartar, plaque, and stains from the surfaces of teeth. The vibrations generated by the scaler break down and loosen these deposits, allowing them to be easily flushed away with water or suction.
