3-B: Precautions for Ultrasonic Prophylaxis Procedures
 Scaler tips (piezo tips) will wear with use. Tips with 2mm of wear will lose
approximately 50% of their scaling efficiency. In general, it is recommended that tips
be discarded and replaced every 4-6 months to maintain optimal efficiency and avoid
breakage.
 Avoid direct contact of tips with the patient's lips, cheeks and tongue.
 Do not reuse scaling tips (piezo tips) that are damaged, bent, or reshaped. Discard
immediately.
 Use the long axis of the scaler tip (piezo tip) to wipe accretions from the tooth. Do not
gouge the tooth with the tip.
