Supragingival applications::
- Removal of plaque and biofilm
- Removal of stains and pigmentations
- Cleaning of the deepest fissures
- Pre and post-orthodontic appliances
- Cleaning of cavity margins before etching
The direct jet should not be directed at the gums, but only at the tooth crown using different angulations.
Subgingival applications:
- Biofilm removal from the deepest periodontal pockets
- Implant patient maintenance and treatment
If the site is found to present a periodontal pocket with depth of over 5 mm, the periodontal subgingival tip will have to be applied to the PERIO spray nozzle, positioning the nozzle against the surface of the tooth. It will take about 5-10 seconds of spraying to satisfactorily detoxify a periodontal pocket (mesial, distal, vestibular and lingual surfaces).
