A comparative evaluation of the efficacy of manual, magnetostrictive and piezoelectric ultrasonic instruments - an in vitro profilometric and SEM study
OBJECTIVES The debridement of diseased root surface is usually performed by mechanical scaling and root planing using manual and power driven instruments. Many new designs in ultrasonic powered scaling tips have been developed. However, their effectiveness as compared to manual curettes has always been debatable. Thus, the objective of this in vitro study was to comparatively evaluate the effic...
متن کاملA comparative study of the cleaning effect of various ultrasonic cleaners on new, unused endodontic instruments
BACKGROUND AND AIM: This study was carried out to compare three different ultrasonic cleaner devices in the cleaning process of endodontic instruments by scanning electron microscope (SEM). METHODS: In this study, 120 unused brand new hand and rotary instruments were examined after removing from the sealed package. The instruments were randomly divided into six groups of 20 rotary or hand files...
متن کاملSignificant influence of scaler tip design on root substance loss resulting from ultrasonic scaling: a laserprofilometric in vitro study.
OBJECTIVES Ultrasonic scalers have become increasingly popular for subgingival debridement. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of different working tip designs (narrow versus wide) on root substance loss caused by either magnetostrictive or piezoelectric ultrasonic devices. METHODS In this in vitro study, a magnetostrictive ultrasonic system with either Slimline or ...
متن کاملThermal and Surface Changes of Dental Implants Following Use of Rotary Instruments and Piezoelectric Devices for Implantoplasty: An In-Vitro Study
Objective: Peri-implantitis is an irreversible inflammatory reaction in the soft and hard tissues around a functional implant . One of the treatment approaches of this disease include smoothing and polishing the rough surface and removing threads on the implants using rotary instruments, which is called implantoplasy. Clinicians should perform implantoplasty with caution because it may raise ...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of roughness of titanium surfaces treated by different hygiene instruments
PURPOSE The use of appropriate instruments to clean surfaces with minimal change, is critical for the successful maintenance of a dental implant. However, there is no consensus about the type and methodology for such instruments. The aim of this study was to characterize changes in the roughness of titanium surfaces treated by various scaling instruments. METHODS Thirty-seven identical disks ...
