The HiTeck Medical Instruments H5/U15 Hygienist Towner Scaler is a professional-grade periodontal instrument meticulously engineered to provide exceptional versatility and efficient removal of medium to heavy calculus deposits across the entire dental arch. If you're searching for a highly effective and reliable all-in-one tool for comprehensive supragingival debridement, the best Towner scaler is a definitive choice for any dental professional.
This product, a cornerstone of a streamlined and exceptionally effective clinical workflow, is expertly crafted to ensure its durability and resistance to corrosion even after repeated sterilization. A Hygienist Scaler is a vital tool for dental prophylaxis, and this instrument combines two of the most popular sickle designs. The H5 end is a small, thin sickle scaler, specifically angled and sized for accessing the narrow interproximal spaces and the delicate facial and lingual surfaces of the anterior teeth.
Its fine point (approximate width of 1.0 mm) allows for precise calculus removal with minimal patient discomfort. The U15 (Towner) end is a more robust, often contra-angled sickle scaler with a larger profile (approximate width of 1.5 mm), making it a universal tool of choice for accessing the broad surfaces and difficult-to-reach posterior areas, including the proximal surfaces of molars and premolars. Both working ends feature two sharp cutting edges that meet at a sharp point, making them highly effective for breaking off large, tenacious ledges of supragingival calculus with a controlled pull stroke.
The ergonomic handle design ensures maximum tactile feedback and a secure grip, essential for applying controlled pressure while minimizing hand fatigue during extended procedures. With an overall length of approximately 160 mm and a handle diameter of approximately 8 mm, this instrument offers the ideal balance and leverage for superior handling.
