The COMPACT-PIEZO P2K LED is an ultrasonic scaler device intended for use, with the appropriate associated insert tips, in thefollowing dental applications:• Scaling: Procedures for removal of supragingival/subgingival and interdental calculus/plaque deposits;• Periodontology: Periodontal therapy and debridement for periodontal diseases, including periodontal pocket irrigationand cleaning;• Endodontics: Treatments for root canal reaming irrigation, revision, filling, gutta-percha condensation and retrogradepreparation;• Restorative and Prosthetics: Restorative procedures including cavity preparation, removal of prostheses, amalgam condensation, finishing of crown preparations, inlay/onlay condensation and implants/restorations cleaning.
An assembly of mains electricity (AC-powered) devices intended to apply ultrasonic oscillations to: 1) mechanically fragment and dislodge gross debris in the dental pulp canal during an endodontic procedure; and/or 2) remove accretions from tooth surfaces during dental cleaning/periodontal therapy. The system typically consists of a generator with controls (e.g., foot-switch) that produces and controls high frequency electric current, and may provide fluid irrigation; a handpiece used to convert the energy to ultrasonic oscillations; and a tip(s) intended to apply the oscillations to the procedure site; tip selection typically affects the intended application (endodontic vs periodontal).
