9.4 Foot Control Information & Operation
• The dental unit manufacturer provides the
Foot Control. Refer to their directions for use for
operating characteristics.
Section 10: Techniques for Use
10.1 Patient Positioning
• The backrest of the chair should be adjusted for
optimal access to both the upper and lower arches.
This assures patient comfort and clinician visibility.
• Have the patient turn head to the right or left.
• Position chin up or down depending on the quadrant
and surface being treated.
• Evacuate irrigant using either a saliva ejector or HVE.
10.2 Performing Ultrasonic Scaling Procedures
• The edges of Dentsply Sirona Cavitron ultrasonic
inserts are intentionally rounded so there is little
danger of tissue laceration with proper ultrasonic
scaling techniques. Whenever the insert is placed
in the mouth, lips, cheek, and tongue should be

retracted to prevent accidental prolonged contact
with the activated tip.
• Always adjust the lavage so adequate fluid will be
available to cool tip and tooth surface.
• In general, use a "feather light touch" both supra-
and subgingivally. The motion of the activated
tip and acoustic effects of the irrigating fluid, in
most cases, is adequate to remove even the most
tenacious calculus.
• Set the system power adjustment knob to the
lowest power setting for the application and the
selected insert, refer to the Insert/Power Level
Selection Guide to determine proper power
settings.
• Only adjust the system power adjustment knob
with the insert outside of the patient's mouth.
