This is a recorded, on-demand course.
This is for hygienists who want faster, cleaner results without cranking the power or sacrificing their bodies. We’ll break down exactly how to match tip design + power settings + technique for biofilm vs. calculus, so patients stay comfortable (yes—even the sensitive ones) and your hands don’t pay the price. You’ll leave with two plug-and-play chairside workflows—Biofilm Mode and Calculus Mode—plus confidence-building language that helps patients trust the process and lets you finish strong.
Learning Objectives
✔️ Differentiate biofilm disruption versus calculus removal goals and select appropriate ultrasonic tip designs (slim/perio, standard, heavy) and power settings to match deposit type and patient tolerance.
✔️ Apply ergonomic ultrasonic instrumentation principles—including correct adaptation, activation zone use, feather-light lateral pressure, and efficient stroke patterns—to improve debridement while reducing clinician strain.
✔️ Implement chairside “Biofilm Mode” and “Calculus Mode” workflows, including water/suction optimization and patient communication strategies for hypersensitivity, to enhance comfort and clinical outcomes.
